Solution

The correct option is A Anteriorly
Lodicule is a small green or white scale below the ovary of a grass flower. The perianth is represented by membranous scales called lodicules. The two lodicules are located anteriorly above and opposite to the superior palea. Hence, two lodicules of Poaceae are usually present anteriorly.
So, the correct answer is 'Anteriorly'.
