Solution

The correct option is B Solanaceae
Solanaceae or nightshades is an economically important family of flowering plants. It includes annual and perennial herbs, vines, epiphytes, shrubs, trees. In Solanaceae, the placenta is swollen and the oblique septum is present. Conniving anthers are the stamens which are not fused but attached. In Solanaceae, the stamens are epipetalous (stamens are attached to the petals but not completely fused).
So, the correct answer is 'Solanaceae'.
