Solution

The correct option is B Perianth
The perianth is the outermost whorl of a flower which consists of sepals and petals but they are not differentiated. The perianth is represented by membranous scales known as lodicules. The lodicules are situated above and opposite to the superior palea. The number or lodicules maybe 2 or 3 or many or they may be absent.
So, the correct answer is 'Perianth'.
