Solution

The correct option is A unisexual
In papaya, the male flowers have stamens while the female flowers have pistils. Male and female flowers are borne in different plants. Hence, the flowers are unisexual and the plants are dioecious as all the flowers that a plant bears are either male or female flowers.
