Solution

The correct option is A Monoecious
The monoecious plants are bisexual because they have both the female or pistillate flowers and the staminate or male flowers. The flowers themselves are unisexual. In such condition, geitonogamous pollination occurs. Corn is an example of the monoecious plant.
Hence, the correct answer is 'Monoecious'
