Answer:
Correct Answer: B
Solution:
When a plant bears only one type of unisexual flowers, it is termed as monoecious.
Some plants possess three types of flowers: perfect (bisexual), staminate and carpellate.
They are called polygamous.
Polygamous plants, such as mango and cashewnut, bear perfect and imperfect flowers on the same individual.
