Solution
The correct option is A The flower will not produce the pollen grains Androecium of the flower is the male part of the flower. It produces the pollen grains. These pollen grains will fertilize the ovules present in the female part of the flower. So naturally, without androecium, the flower will be incapable of producing pollen grains.
