Hyoscyamus belongs to family Solanaceae family and is characterized by presence of bicarpellary gynoecium (two carpels), bilocular gynoecium (B-I).
Ulex belongs to family Fabaceae which has monolocular, monocarpellary ovary (D-II).
Citrus belongs to family Rutaceae and has multicarpellary, syncarpous, multilocular, superior ovary (C-IV).
Capsicum belongs to family Solanaceae family and is characterized by presence of bicarpellary gynoecium (two carpels), unilocular (due to formation of imperfect cross wall) gynoecium (A-V).
Therefore, the correct answer is option B.
