Solution

The correct option is A Bisexual, Cross Pollination
When the male and female reproductive organs are present in the same flower, they are called bisexual flowers. The transfer of pollen grains from one flower to the stigma of another flower in different plant of same species is termed as cross pollination. Pollen grains are produced in large amounts to increase the chance of pollination in flowers that undergo in cross pollination, as there are chances that the pollen grains do not reach the pistil.
