Correct answer
B. Trimerous, actinormorphic, polyandrous superior ovay axile placentation
Step-by-step solution
Angiosperms plants are divided into two categories as monocots and dicots. Monocots have trimerous flowers while dicots have tetramerous or pentamerous flowers. Flowers of this family are actinomorphic (radial symmetry), polyandrous (several stamens), superior ovary (hypogynous), and with axile placentation (ovules in the multilocular ovary), etc.
