  • A-IV, B-II, C-I, D-III
  • A-II, B-IV, C-I, D-III
  • A-IV, B-II, C-III, D-I
  • A-IV, B-III, C-I, D-II
Show Solution

The Correct Option is A

Solution and Explanation

Step 1: Define placentation.
Placentation is the arrangement of ovules inside the ovary, and we match each type with its example plant.
Step 2: Marginal (A).
In marginal placentation ovules lie along one ridge, as in pea, so A pairs with IV.
Step 3: Axile (B).
In axile placentation ovules attach to a central axis in a chambered ovary, as in tomato, so B pairs with II.
Step 4: Parietal (C).
In parietal placentation ovules sit on the inner ovary wall, as in Argemone, so C pairs with I.
Step 5: Free central (D).
In free central placentation ovules grow on a central axis with no septa, as in Primrose, so D pairs with III.
Step 6: Assemble and conclude.
The match A-IV, B-II, C-I, D-III is option 1.
\[ \boxed{\text{A-IV, B-II, C-I, D-III}} \]
