Hint:

Placentation is a key classification feature in plant families. Common examples:
- Marginal - Pea (Legumes)
- Axile - Tomato (Solanaceae)
- Parietal - Argemone (Papaveraceae)
- Basal - Sunflower (Asteraceae)

Answer 1

The Correct Option is B

Step 1: Understanding Placentation Types
Placentation refers to how ovules are attached inside the ovary.
- Marginal Placentation → Pea (IV) (Ovules arranged along one side, typical of legumes)
- Axile Placentation → Tomato (III) (Ovules attached to a central column)
- Parietal Placentation → Argemone (II) (Ovules attached to the outer wall)
- Basal Placentation → Sunflower (I) (Single ovule at the base)

Step 2: Matching Correctly
Correct matching is:(2) A - IV, B - III, C - II, D - I
