Solution
The correct option is A Plantain
A spathe is a large bract that forms a sheath to enclose the flower cluster of certain plants such as palms, Arums, Iris and dayflowers. In many arums the spathe is petal-like, attracting pollinators to the flowers arranged on a type of spike called a spadix. In Plantain the presence of multiple spathes is its characteristic feature. In plantain each pseudostem of a plantain plant will flower only once. All the flowers grow at the end of its shoot in a large bunch made of multiple hands with individual fingers (the fruits). Only the first few hands will become fruits.
Therefore, the correct answer is option A.
