Solution

The correct option is D Six
Marginal placentation is the characteristic feature of the Fabaceae family. In this type of placentation, the ovules are present in a row on the ventral suture of the ovary. Gram, arhar, sunhemp, moong, pea and lupin belong to the Fabaceae, so they have the marginal placentation.
Hence, the correct answer is 'Six'
