• C. Male and female sex organs are on the same individual.

Answer 1

The correct option is C Male and female sex organs are on the same individual.

"Mono" means single so a monoecious plant is one that bears both male and female sex organs on same plant. The monoecious plant can produce bisexual flowers or unisexual flowers. A dioecious plant is one that bears both male and female sex organs on different plants. A dioecious plant will always produce unisexual flowers.
