Solution

The correct option is D Hypanthodium inflorescence
Hypanthodium is the type of inflorescence in which the receptacle forms a hollow cavity with an apical opening guarded by scales. Here the flowers are borne on the inner wall of the cavity. It is also present in syconus.
So the correct answer is 'Hypanthodium inflorescence'.
