Solution

The correct option is D Unisexual flowers
  • Flower is a reproductive organ of an angiosperm plant. A typical flower consists of sepals, petals, stamens, and carpels in distinct whorls normally known as calyx, corolla, androecium, and gynoecium.
  • A flower in which all the four above mentioned whorls are present is called a complete flower. A flower having both stamens as well as carpels/pistils is called a bisexual flower.
  • Flowers that are either staminate (bearing stamens only) or pistillate (bearing pistils only) are termed as unisexual flowers.
Hence, the answer is D.
