C

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

D

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

Correct Answer

Option C

Detailed Explanation

The correct answer is C because it accurately matches the types of placentation with their respective examples.

  1. Marginal placentation occurs in legumes like the pea (IV), where ovules are attached along the margin of the ovary.
  2. Axile placentation is seen in tomatoes (II), where ovules are attached to the central axis of a multi-chambered ovary.
  3. Parietal placentation is exemplified by primrose (III), where ovules are attached to the walls of the ovary.
  4. Free central placentation is found in argemone (I), where ovules are attached to a central column.

The other options fail because they misassign the examples to the types of placentation.
