Solution

The correct option is C Halophytes
Halophytes are plants adapted to grow in saline conditions. They grow in mangroves, coastal dunes and marshes. The environmental conditions are high salinity and high level of water. The lower parts of trees are permanently submerged in water and grow pneumatophores for gaseous exchange and respiration. The upper parts of these plants are not submerged and freely exposed to atmosphere.
