Options

A. Superior ovary - mustard, china rose, brinjal, peach
B. Half inferior ovary - plum, rose
C. Inferior ovary - guava and cucumber
D. Epigynous flowers - ray florets of sunflower

Answer

To solve the question of matching the incorrect pair, we need to analyze the pairs given and identify which one does not fit the criteria based on the type of ovary each plant has. Here’s a step-by-step breakdown:

### Step 1: Understand the Types of Ovaries
- **Superior Ovary**: The ovary is above the attachment of other floral parts. This is known as hypogynous.
- **Half Inferior Ovary**: The ovary is situated between the other floral parts. This is known as perigynous.
- **Inferior Ovary**: The ovary is below the attachment of other floral parts. This is known as epigynous.

### Step 2: Analyze Each Pair
1. **Superior Ovary - Mustard, China Rose, Brinjal, Peach**
- Mustard, China Rose, and Brinjal have superior ovaries (hypogynous).
- **Peach** has a half inferior ovary (perigynous). This is incorrect.

2. **Half Inferior Ovary - Plum and Rose**
- Both Plum and Rose have half inferior ovaries (perigynous). This is correct.

3. **Inferior Ovary - Guava and Cucumber**
- Both Guava and Cucumber have inferior ovaries (epigynous). This is correct.

4. **Superior Ovary - Sunflower**
- The ray florets of Sunflower have inferior ovaries (epigynous). This is correct.

### Step 3: Identify the Incorrect Pair
From the analysis, the first pair (Superior Ovary - Mustard, China Rose, Brinjal, Peach) is incorrect because Peach does not have a superior ovary; it has a half inferior ovary.

### Conclusion
The incorrect pair is:
- **Superior Ovary - Peach** (This is the incorrect match)
