Solution

The correct option is C Unisexual
The essential organs of a flower are those organs that are directly involved in the process of gametes formation and fertilization. The androecium made up of stamens represent the male reproductive part and the gynoecium made up of carpels represent the female reproductive part, these are the essential organs of a flower. The flower that has both of these organs is called perfect or hermaphrodite or bisexual. The flower that has only one, either androecium or gynoecium, is called an imperfect or unisexual flower.
Hence, the correct answer is 'Unisexual'
