Solution

The correct option is A Xerophytes
Xerophytes are plants, which are adapted to dry/desert areas. Xerophytes are plants, that are adapted in such a way, that they are able to tolerate extended periods of dry conditions.
Mesophytes are terrestrial plants, which are adapted to neither a particularly dry nor particularly wet environment.
Lithophytes are plants that grow on stones and rocks or in their crevices. Hydrophyte is a plant, that grows wholly or partly submerged in water.
