The correct Answer is:
### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding Photoperiodism**: Photoperiodism is the physiological reaction of organisms to the length of day or night. Plants can be classified based on their flowering response to different lengths of daylight. 2. **Identifying Plant Types**: - **Day Neutral Plants**: These plants do not depend on the length of day or night for flowering. They can flower regardless of the photoperiod. - **Long Short Day Plants (LSTP)**: These plants require a short photoperiod followed by a long photoperiod to flower. - **Short Long Day Plants (SLDP)**: These plants require a short photoperiod followed by a long photoperiod to flower. 3. **Analyzing the Question**: The question specifically asks for the type of plant that flowers after exposure to short photoperiods followed by long photoperiods. 4. **Choosing the Correct Answer**: Based on the definitions: - The plants that flower after short photoperiods followed by long photoperiods are classified as **Short Long Day Plants (SLDP)**. 5. **Final Answer**: Therefore, the correct answer to the question is **SLDP (Short Long Day Plants)**.
