Solution
The correct option is BC4 plants Kranz anatomy is a specialized structure in C4 plants where the mesophyll cells are clustered around the bundle-sheath cells in a ring-like fashion. The number of chloroplasts in the bundle-sheath cells is more than that in the mesophyll cells. This is found in C4 grasses such as maize and a few dicots.
