AMonoadelphous union into one bundle
BEpipetalous attachment to corolla
CEpiphyllous attachment to perianth
DPolyandrous separation without union
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: B. Epipetalous attachment to corolla
Epipetalous = stamens fused to petals (e.g., brinjal). Epiphyllous = fused to perianth (lily). Polyandrous = free stamens. Mono/di/polyadelphous = stamens united in 1/2/many bundles (china rose / pea / citrus).
