Answer:
Correct Answer: B
Solution:
In angiosperm, sporophylls are organised into flowers.
Both microsporophylls and megasporophylls are specialised.
A microsporophyll or stamen consists of a filament and an anther.
A megasporophyll or carpel is rolled and partly sterilised to produce a stigma, style and ovary containing ovules.
