Options

  1. A. A-IV, B-II, C-I, D-III
  2. B. A-II, B-IV, C-I, D-III
  3. C. A-IV, B-II, C-III, D-I
  4. D. A-IV, B-III, C-I, D-II

Answer

A. A-IV, B-II, C-I, D-III

Step-by-step solution

Marginal placentation is found in pea where the placenta forms a ridge along the ventral suture of the ovary. Axile placentation is found in tomato, lemon, and china rose where the placenta is axial and ovules are attached to it in a multilocular ovary. Parietal placentation is found in Argemone and mustard where ovules develop on the inner wall of the ovary or on the peripheral part. Free central placentation is found in Primrose and Dianthus where ovules are borne on the central axis and septa are absent. Therefore, the correct matching is A-IV, B-II, C-I, D-III.
