Answer
A is true but R is false.
Reason — In dioecious plants, the male and female unisexual flowers are borne on different plants. Therefore, A is true.
R is false because staminate and pistillate flowers occurring on the same plant at different positions is a characteristic of monoecious plants, not dioecious plants.
Therefore, A is true but R is false is the correct option.
