The correct Answer is:
To solve the question regarding self-pollination in potatoes, we need to analyze each option provided: 1. **Understanding the Question**: The question asks in which condition self-pollination occurs in potatoes. We need to evaluate the options given. 2. **Option A: Bud Condition**: In this condition, the flower is not fully developed, and self-pollination does not occur. Therefore, this option is incorrect. 3. **Option B: Cleistogamous Condition**: This refers to flowers that do not open and thus cannot facilitate self-pollination. Since potatoes do not have cleistogamous flowers, this option is also incorrect. 4. **Option C: Bending of Filaments to Bring Anthers in Contact with Stigma**: This suggests that the filaments bend to facilitate pollination. However, in potatoes, it is not the filaments that bend but rather the style. Thus, this option is incorrect. 5. **Option D: Style Bends to Bring Stigma in Contact with Anthers**: In potatoes, the style curls, which allows the stigma to come into contact with the anthers, facilitating self-pollination. This is the correct option. **Final Answer**: The correct answer is (d) Style bends to bring stigma in contact with anthers.
