Solution

The correct option is A Anterior
Caesalpinioideae is characterized by presence of 5 sepals, rarely four, which are mostly free and the anterior sepal is odd one. This makes them zygomorphic flowers which can be divided into two equal halves by one or more plane but not all vertical planes cut them into equal halves.
Therefore, the correct answer is option A.
