The correct Answer is:
To determine the number of stamens present in the Malvaceae family, we can follow these steps: ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understand the Malvaceae Family**: The Malvaceae family, commonly known as the mallow family, includes various flowering plants such as hibiscus, cotton, and okra. 2. **Identify the Stamen Characteristics**: In plants of the Malvaceae family, the stamens are usually numerous. Specifically, they often have a characteristic arrangement where they are united at the base. 3. **Count the Stamens**: While many flowering plants have a fixed number of stamens (like 5 or 10), in the Malvaceae family, the stamens are described as being "numerous." This means they can vary in number and are often considered to be infinite in practical terms. 4. **Select the Correct Option**: Given the options provided: - Option A: Infinite - Option B: 5 - Option C: 10 - Option D: 9 plus 1 The correct answer is **Option A: Infinite**, as the stamens in the Malvaceae family are numerous and not fixed to a specific count. ### Final Answer: The number of stamens present in the Malvaceae family is **infinite**. ---
