The correct option is A Raceme
A. Corymb in which the main axis is short. Lower flowers have long pedicels than upper ones so that all the flowers are brought more or less to the same level. It is a type of racemose inflorescence.
B. Umbel in which the main axis is reduced very much and all flowers appear to be arising from the same point. It is a type of racemose inflorescence.
C. Raceme in which elongated peduncle has bisexual and pedicellate flowers arranged acropetally. It is a type of racemose inflorescence.
D. Capitulum or head in which the main axis becomes flat and called receptacle. It bears many sessile and small florets. It is a type of racemose inflorescence.
