उत्तर
(ii), (iii) and (iv)
Explanation -
Flowers which possess either stamens or pistil are called unisexual flowers. These flowers are borne either on the same or different plants thus, pollen grains need to be transferred from one flower to another through agents like wind, water or animals, that is, cross pollination occurs. Since fruits develop from the ovary of the pistil, unisexual flowers with stamens only cannot bear fruits.
