Solution

The correct option is C Brassicaceae Mustard
The false partition is called as the replum. The androecium of Brassicaceae is tetradynamous. It consists of 4 long inner stamens and 2 short outer stamens. The gynoecium consists of 2 carpels that are separated by a persistent false partition called as a replum. The superior ovary is usually 2-loculed and bears many ovules on parietal placentae. At maturity, the 2 valves of the fruit separate, leaving the ovules attached to the persistent replum. Long, narrow fruits of this family are called as siliques.
Thus, the correct answer is option D.
