Solution

The correct option is C
Bisexual flowers

When a flower is pollinated by the pollen from the same flower or from another flower on the same plant then it is called self-pollination. When separate flowers containing androecium and gynoecium are present in different plants, the type of pollination that occurs is always cross-pollination.
