Solution

The correct option is A Liliaceae
Liliaceae or Lily family includes species of an economically important family of monocotyledonous flowering plants. In Liliaceae, the flower is pedicellate, actinomorphic (radial symmetry), bisexual, hypogynous (stamens and other floral parts are situated below carpels), trimerous (calyx, corolla and stamens are present in sets of 3). In Liliaceae, the gynoecium is Tricarpellary, syncarpous, ovary superior, trilocular or unilocular with two ovules, axile placentation, style simple; stigma trilobed.
So, the correct answer is 'Liliaceae'.
