Answer:
(d)indioecious plants, the unisexual
male flower is staminate, i.e., bearing stamens only, while the female is
pistillate or bearing pistils only. For the production of fruits and seeds fertilization
must take place, which is possible only in the presence of both male and female
flowers. When the plant is dioecious, it will give rise to the following
situations
(i) If the plant is dioecious and bears
only pistillate flowers, fertilization can take place with the help of
pollinators.
(ii) If the plant is dioecious
and bears only staminate flowers, fertilization can't take place, because
female gamete is non-motile which can't reach the male gamete in order to fuse
with it.
When the plant is monoecious
i.e., carrying both stamen and pistill together, it may lead to self-fertilization
and production of seed.
