#1 is A as it has both a Pistil (the female reproductive organ) and Stamen (male reproductive organ)
#2 is B and C both because they only have one of the required sex organs

Petals and sepals are irrelevant to the question of self-pollination.
To self-pollinate a flower needs both pistil and stamens. Therefore A can self-pollinate. Stamens produce pollen, so a flower with stamens only (B) can polinate another flower but cannot be pollinated. Flower C, with a pistil only, needs pollen from another flower.
