• B. Six stamens, two long and four short
• C. Six stamens, two short in outer whorl and four long in inner whorl
• D. Four stamens, two short and two long in outer and inner whorls respectively

Answer 1

The correct option is C Six stamens, two short in outer whorl and four long in inner whorl

The tetradynamous condition of the stamens occurs when there are six stamens, the outer two whorls are shorter stamens and the inner four whorls longer stamens. It is seen in Brassica.

Hence, the correct answer is 'Six stamens, two short in the outer whorl and four long in inner whorl'
