Verified By Collegedunia
The Correct Option is A
Solution and Explanation
The arrangement of ovules inside the ovary on placenta is called placentation. Sweet pea or Lathyrus odoratus belongs to family leguminosae or fabaceae and in all the members of this family the placentation is marginal in which ovary is unilocular and ovules are borne on margin.

Sexual Reproduction in Flowering Plants
Sexual reproduction in flowering plants takes place or happens when the production of a new organism occurs from two parents by making use of their gametes or sex cells. Both sexual and asexual reproduction can be found in plants. Nearly all flowering plants reproduce sexually. Flowers play a captious role in the process as it carries both the male and female reproductive parts commonly known as androecium and gynoecium respectively.
An individual flower comprises the following parts -
- Pedicle
- Calyx
- Petals
- Sepals
- Stamen
- Pistil
- Receptacle
