Solution

The correct option is D achlamydeous
When both non-essential whorls are present, the flower is described as dichlamydeous and when only one non-essential whorl is present, the flower is called as monochalmydeous, e.g., polygonum. When both the nonessential whorls are absent then the flower is said to be achlamydeous or naked.
