Solution

The correct option is C Self fertilisation
Autogamy is the process where the pollen grain from the same flower is transferred to the stigma of the same flower or another flower in the same plant. The genetic material remains the same and there is no DNA from another individual mixing. So, autogamy is also called self fertilisation.
