a. Calyx: The collective term for sepals of a flower is calyx.
b. Corolla: The collective term for petals of a flower is corolla

d. Gynoecium: The female reproductive part of the flower is called Gynoecium. It consists of : Stigma , style and Ovary.

Rose, banana and jasmine have lost the capacity to produce seeds and propagate through them, so vegetative propagation is the only mode of reproduction possible for them.
