The correct Answer is:
To answer the question regarding the type of anthers found in wheat, jowar, and grasses, we can follow these steps: ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding Anther Attachment**: The first step is to understand how anthers can be attached to the filament. There are four main types of attachment: basifixed, adenate, versatile, and dorsifixed. 2. **Identifying the Types of Attachment**: - **Basifixed**: Anthers are attached at their base to the filament. - **Adenate**: Anthers are attached to the filament along their entire length. - **Versatile**: Anthers are attached at the middle of the filament, allowing them to swing freely. - **Dorsifixed**: Anthers are attached at their dorsal side to the filament. 3. **Analyzing Wheat, Jowar, and Grasses**: For the specific case of wheat, jowar, and grasses, we need to determine which type of anther attachment is present in these plants. 4. **Conclusion**: In wheat, jowar, and grasses, the anthers are classified as **versatile**. This means they are attached in the middle of the filament, allowing them to move freely. ### Final Answer: In wheat, jowar, and grasses, the anthers are called **versatile** anthers. ---
