cyamose:definite inflorescence
racemose :indefinite inflorescence

Explanation:

cyamose -in this case the main axis stops its growth and terminates into a flower.the lateral branches appear below it,which also terminate into flowers.the central flower opens first .

racemose -the peduncle grows indefinitely and bears flowers in acropetal order i.e. older ones at the base and younger flowers near the apex or growing point.
