(i)	Acicular	(a)	Grass
(ii)	Linear	(b)	Nerium
(iii)	Lanceolate	(c)	Banana
(iv)	Oblong	(d)	Pine

• A. (i)-d, (ii)-a, (iii)-b, (iv)-c
• B. (i)-d, (ii)-a, (iii)-c, (iv)-b
• C. (i)-d, (ii)-b, (iii)-c, (iv)-a
• D. (i)-d, (ii)-c, (iii)-b, (iv)-a

Answer 1

The correct option is A (i)-d, (ii)-a, (iii)-b, (iv)-c

The leaves of pines are acicular-shaped. These are commonly called as needles. The leaves are narrow with almost parallel sides. The leaves of grass are linear. They are long and sharp likes blades. The leaves of nerium are compound and lanceolate. Lanceolate are similar to blades but are more wider in the center. The leaves of banana are oblong. They are as long as it is broad, with curved sides that are parallel.

Thus, the correct answer is '(i)-d, (ii)-a, (iii)-b, (iv)-c.'
