Solution

The correct option is B

(i), (ii) and (iii)


The correct option is B.

Explanation for Correct option:
Flowers have a role in plant sexual reproduction. The sexual reproduction process results in the formation of seeds. Fruits are the protective covering for seeds. Sexual reproduction encompasses all three. Flowering plants, often known as angiosperms, reproduce in a sexual manner. Plant reproduction is primarily centered on the flower, which contains both male and female gametes. Although some components of bloom are sterile, they all help in the reproduction process.

Explanation for Incorrect option:

Option A:
Flower contains male and female reproductive parts and the seed is produced after fertilization.

Option C:
Fruit is formed after fertilization while the branches do not play any role in sexual reproduction.

Option D:
Flowers play the most crucial role as they contain reproductive organs while the fruit is produced after the process of fertilization and branches do not play any role in sexual reproduction.

Final answer: Flower, seed, and fruit take part in sexual reproduction.
