Solution

The correct option is C

Argemone


Spiny. A spiny leaf has spines pointing outwards. Argemone mexicana is an erect spiny annual or biennial herb, up to 1 m tall, with a slightly branched taproot. Its stem is branched and very prickly; it exudes a yellow juice when cut. The leaves are thistle-like and alternate, without leaf stalks, toothed and with spiny margins.

So, the correct answer is 'Argemone'.
