Solution

The correct option is A A-male, B-female, C-female, D-male
Gibberellins are growth hormones that stimulate cell elongation and cause plants to grow taller. Gibberellins also have a role in other plant processes, such as stem elongation, germination, flowering, and fruit ripening. Gibberellins promote the formation of male flowers on genetically female plants in Cannabis whereas ethylene promotes formation of female flowers on genetically male Cannabis plants.
So, the correct answers are "A- Male, B- Female, C- Female, D- Male."
