Answer

To solve the question of which pair of edible plants has two or more than two edible parts, we can analyze each plant listed:

1. **Banana**:
- Edible parts: The fruit (banana) is widely consumed. In some regions, the stem and leaves are also used for food (e.g., banana stem curry and banana leaf for serving food).
- Total edible parts: 3 (fruit, stem, leaves).

2. **Brinjal** (Eggplant):
- Edible parts: Primarily, the fruit (the brinjal itself) is consumed. Other parts like leaves are not commonly eaten.
- Total edible parts: 1 (fruit).

3. **Lady's Finger** (Okra):
- Edible parts: The fruit (the okra pods) is the main edible part. Other parts like leaves are not typically consumed.
- Total edible parts: 1 (fruit).

4. **Pumpkin**:
- Edible parts: The fruit (pumpkin flesh) is consumed, and the seeds are also edible and nutritious. The flowers can also be eaten (pumpkin flowers).
- Total edible parts: 3 (fruit, seeds, flowers).

Now, we need to identify a pair of plants that have two or more edible parts.

- **Banana** has 3 edible parts.
- **Pumpkin** has 3 edible parts.

Both Banana and Pumpkin have two or more edible parts. Therefore, the answer is:

**Answer: 1 and 4 (Banana and Pumpkin)**
