Solution

The correct option is C
(i) needle-shaped
(ii) pine

Most conifers such as fir, pine, spruce and larch have needle-like leaves. Coniferous trees have long, thin leaves that resemble needles. They are also cone shaped. This allows the snow to slide off and prevents accumulation of snow on tree branches.
