The goal of every living organism including plants is to create offspring for the next generation. One of the ways that plants can produce offspring is by making seeds which then germinate to produce new plants. Two types of flowers with their pollination is seen in plants are chasmogamy and cleistogamy.

| (v) Identify the features of the type of flower given below. |
 |
| Choose the correct conclusions drawn from this figure. |
| I. Cleistogamous flowers are not dependent on pollinators. |
| II. Chasmogamous flowers are bisexual. |
| III. Chasmogamous flowers do not show cross-pollination. |
A) I and II
B) I and III
C) II and III
D) Only I
