The correct option is B Corn and willow
Anemophilous flowers have certain characters like:-
  • Production of a large number of pollen grains.
  • Well exposed anther.
  • Stigma is feathery and sticky.
  • Pollen grains are light and non-sticky.
All these properties are found in the flower of corn and willow.

So the correct option is 'Corn and willow'.
