Solution

The correct option is A Euphorbia
B. Australian acacia
Reason: Acacia found in the deserts of Australia. Phyllode is a flattened petiole or rachis of a leaf which perform the function of photosynthesis. A bud is present in the axil of a phyllode and phyllode does not arise in the axil of a leaf as it is itself a leafy structure.
