• A. Calyx and Corolla
• B. Androecium and Gynoecium
• C. Calyx and Androecium
• D. Corolla and Gynoecium

Answer 1

The correct option is B Androecium and Gynoecium

Any flower has two essential parts also called as reproductive part.

1. Stamens or androecium are the male reproductive part and responsible for the production of pollen grains (male gamete).
2. Carpels, pistil or gynoecium are the female reproductive part and produce ovum (female gamete).

So the correct option is 'Androecium and Gynoecium'.
