Vedclass · Answer

(B) Self-fertilization occurs in plants where both male and female reproductive organs are present in the same flower, known as bisexual flowers. In the case of the pea plant $(Pisum sativum)$, the flowers are bisexual and exhibit a phenomenon called cleistogamy (bud pollination), where the flower remains closed, ensuring that pollen grains from the anther fall directly onto the stigma of the same flower, leading to self-fertilization.
