Solution

The correct option is B

Pinus


Depending on the presence and absence of the bisexual flowers, the plants can be classified as monoecious and dioecious. In monoecious plants, the flowers are unisexual but both the pistillate and staminate flowers are present. Pistillate flowers are female flowers and staminate flowers are male flowers. In dioecious plants, either pistillate flowers or staminate flowers are present. In Pinus, both the male cone and female cone are present on the same plant. Hence, the correct answer is 'Pinus'
