Solution

The correct option is A
Sepal

The pedicel connects the flower to the plant. The thalamus holds all the parts of the flower- sepals, petals, androecium, and the gynoecium. Sepals are usually green in colour and they protect and encloses the flower when it is a bud. After the flower blooms, they support the petals.
