The correct Answer is:
**Step-by-Step Solution:** 1. **Understanding Basifixed Anther**: The term "basifixed anther" refers to a type of anther that is attached to the filament at its base. This means that the lower part of the anther connects directly to the filament, which supports the anther. 2. **Visual Representation**: To visualize this, imagine the anther as a small structure that sits atop a stalk called the filament. In a basifixed anther, the connection point is at the bottom of the anther, making it stable and firmly attached. 3. **Identifying the Correct Option**: Given the options: - Option 1 states that the basifixed anther is attached to the filament from the top. This is incorrect. - Option 2 states that it is attached at the base firmly. This is correct. - Option 3 combines options A and B, which is incorrect since option A is wrong. - Option 4 states that all options are wrong, which is also incorrect. 4. **Conclusion**: The correct answer is Option 2, which accurately describes the basifixed anther as being attached to the filament at its base.
