Solution
The correct option is C Taraxaccum
Gynoecium refers to the part of a flower that produces ovules and develops into fruits and seeds. Being the female whorl of the flower, it has one or more carpels that bear ovules. Further, each carpel can be differentiated into three parts- stigma, style and ovary. The ovary contains one or more ovules and encloses an embryo sac.
Florets of Taraxaccum or dandelion species have been studied and have been found to possess an inferior and unilocular ovary with a single ovule on the basal placenta like that of the family Asteraceae.
Therefore, the correct answer is option C.
