Solution

The correct option is A Cruciferae
Siliqua is the fruit of cruciferae. A silique or siliqua is a fruit of two fused carpels with the length being more than three times the width. When the length is less than three times the width of the dried fruit, it is referred to as a silicle. The outer walls of the ovary usually separate when ripe, leaving a persistent partition (the replum).
Thus, the correct answer is option A.
