The correct answer is Option (3) → Assertion (A) is true but Reason (R) is false.

Explanation:

Assertion: "Gynoecium consists of pistil." – True

• The gynoecium is the female reproductive part of a flowering plant.
• It consists of one or more pistils, each of which includes:
• Ovary (contains ovules).
• Style (connects stigma to ovary).
• Stigma (receives pollen during pollination).

Reason: "Gynoecium represents the male reproductive part in flowering plants." – False

• The male reproductive part in flowering plants is called the androecium, which consists of stamens (anther + filament).
• The gynoecium is the female reproductive part, not the male one.
