Solution
The correct option is C Two
- In Fabaceae, the stamens are united into two bundles. Hence they are diadelphous. Hence statement (B) is wrong because diadelphous stamens are found in the Fabaceae family.
- In Fabaceae, Hypogynous flowers are seen i.e the gynoecium occupies the highest position while the other parts are situated below it. The ovary in such flowers is said to be superior. Hence statement (D) is wrong because Superior ovary is found in the Fabaceae family.
- Hence from the given 4 statements, two are wrong statements i.e statement (B) and (D).
- So, the correct answer is 'Two'.
