Detailed explanation-1: -Hence, the correct answer is ‘Parietal Placentation’.

Detailed explanation-2: -Parietal placentation is the type of placentation found in unilocular syncarpous ovary. In this arrangement, the ovule develops on the inner wall of the ovary or on the peripheral part e.g., Cucurbita, Argemone, and Cruciferae family (Mustard). Therefore, the correct answer is option C.

Detailed explanation-3: -In parietal placentation, placenta develops along the fused margins of adjacent carpels on the parietal wall of the ovary. It occurs in a syncarpous bi or multicarpellary pistil in which the ovary is unilocular, i.e., has a single chamber. The number of placenta is equal to the number of carpels that have been fused.

Detailed explanation-4: -Definition. A type of placentation found in compound, unilocular ovaries in which the ovules arise from placentae inserted on the wall of the locule near the sutures.
