Solution

The correct option is C Malvaceae
Epipetalous stamens and axile placentation is found in Malvaceae. The stamens are five to numerous and connate at least at their bases, but often forming a tube around the pistils. The pistils are composed of two to many connate carpels. The ovary is superior, with axial placentation, with capitate or lobed stigma. The flowers have nectaries made of many tightly packed glandular hairs, usually positioned on the sepals.
Therefore, the correct answer is option C.
