Solution

The correct option is B Q and R
Perigynous flowers have a concave or flat receptacle with the gynoecium and other floral parts at the same level, as in the rose. Examples of plants with perigynous flowers are Rose and Prunus. Prunus is a genus of trees and shrubs, which includes plums, cherries, peaches, nectarines, apricots, and almonds. Both Q and R represent perigynous flowers.

So, the correct option is 'Q and R'.
