Vedclass · Answer

(D) The correct answer is $D$. In the family $Cruciferae$ (also known as $Brassicaceae$),the petals are $4$ in number and are polypetalous. These petals are arranged in a single whorl and alternate with the sepals. Each petal consists of a narrow,stalk-like basal part called a 'claw' and a broad,spreading upper part called a 'limb'. This specific arrangement,where the petals are spread out in the form of a Greek cross,is known as a cruciform arrangement.
