Solution

The correct option is A Fabaceae $/$ Leguninosae
Marginal placentation is a feature of the family Leguminosae or Fabaceae. The flowers show monocarpellary apocarpous gynoecium with the placenta being developed on the ridge along the ventral suture and the ovules are borne on this ridge. This type of placentation is called marginal placentation.
Hence, the correct answer is 'Fabaceae/Leguminosae'.
