Solution

The correct option is D Zostera
  • Zostera is the marine seagrass which gets pollinated by water. Pollens are released in water and capture by stigmas.
  • In Viola, the flowers get pollinated by bees.
  • In Oxalis and Commelina, there is no need for pollinator as they are closed flowers. There is no chance of cross-pollination.
  • In Yucca, the flowers are pollinated by yucca moth.
So, the correct option is 'Option E'.
