Solution

The correct option is D Psychrophytes
Psychrophytes are plants adapted to cold conditions. They are mostly found in the Tundra region. These plants have adaptations for survival in cold conditions. One of the adaptations is antifreeze proteins that prevent the formation of ice- crystals in these plant cells which prevents plant freezing
So, the correct answer is 'Psychrophytes'
