The correct answer is option (d) heliophytes.

  • Sunstroke plants or heliophytes have been converted into a habitat with deep insolation, due to its structure and storage (metabolism).
  • These plants grow in sunlight. For example, mullein, ling, thyme and soft velcro, white clover, and many roses.
  • They are common in open areas, on rocks, creeks, and in mountain pastures and in grasslands and other long sunny days.
