Answer 1

The correct option is D $$\begin{array}{ccccc}& a& b& c& d\\ & 3& 4& 2& 1\end{array}$$

Monocarpellary - Single pistil
A monocarpellary gynoecium is made up of a single pistil.

Multicarpellary - More than one pistils
A multicarpellary gynoecium is made up of more than one pistil.

Apocarpous - Pistils free
A multicarpellary gynoecium in which the pistils are free is called apocarpous gynoecium.

Syncarpous - Pistils fused
A multicarpellary gynoecium in which the pistils are fused is called syncarpous gynoecium.
