Solution

The correct option is B Malvaceae
Hibiscus (Hibiscus rosa-sinensis) belongs to family Malvaceae. It is most commonly known as the "shoe flower" because the flowers were traditionally used to polish shoes in Jamaica and some African countries. The juice from the petals is used in China as shoe-blacking and mascara.
