Answer: The correct answer is the letter A. Self -incompatibility.

Step-by-step explanation:

Self-incompatibility refers to the inability of a plant with functional pollen to set seeds when self-pollinated. It is the failure of pollen from a flower to fertilize the same flower or other flowers of the same plant.
