The correct option is B Descending imbricate
Pisum sativum belongs to the family Papilionaceae or Fabaceae. The aestivation of the flower is descending imbricate also known as vexillary imbricate. It is characterised by a large petal called standard petal that overlaps the lateral petals called the wings. The wings further overlap the anterior petal called keel. So, the petals are arranged in a descending pattern. Hence, the correct answer is 'Descending imbricate'
