The Correct Option is A
Solution and Explanation
The correct answer is:
Option 1: Maize
Explanation:
Kranz anatomy is a specialized leaf structure found in plants that perform C4 photosynthesis, such as maize (corn), sorghum, and sugarcane.
In Kranz anatomy, the leaf has two distinct types of cells:
Bundle sheath cells: These cells are located around the vascular bundles and contain large amounts of chloroplasts for the Calvin cycle.
Mesophyll cells: These cells are located between the epidermis and bundle sheath and are involved in the initial fixation of carbon dioxide.
This adaptation helps C4 plants minimize photorespiration and efficiently fix carbon in hot, dry environments.
The other options (Tomato, Potato, Pea) are C3 plants and do not exhibit Kranz anatomy.
