Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C
The correct statement is 'c' because flower is highly condensed and modified shoot meant for sexual reproduction (Dr. Goethe, 1790). During the course of evolution, the nodes of the axis of shoot came in contact so, that intemodes got reduced, and leaves get modified and specialised to form floral leaves.
