**Step-by-Step Solution:** 1. **Identify the Question**: The question is asking about the type of placentation found in pea and bean plants. 2. **Understand Placentation**: Placentation refers to the arrangement of ovules within the ovary of a flower. Different types of placentation include marginal, basal, axile, and parietal. 3. **Know the Family**: Both pea (Pisum sativum) and bean (Phaseolus) belong to the Fabaceae family (also known as Leguminosae). 4. **Determine the Type of Placentation**: In the Fabaceae family, the type of placentation is known as marginal placentation. In this type, the placenta develops along the junction of the two carpels. 5. **Characteristics of Marginal Placentation**: - It occurs in a unilocular ovary, meaning there is a single locule (chamber). - The ovules are attached to the wall of the ovary at the margin. 6. **Conclusion**: Therefore, the correct answer to the question regarding the type of placentation in pea and bean is "Marginal". **Final Answer**: The placentation in pea and bean is Marginal. ---
