Solution

The correct option is B Bat
Kigelia pinnate is a species belonging to the family Bignoniaceae. It is found in tropical Africa. This is an evergreen tree with pinnate leaves and long drooping inflorescence. It produces bell-shaped flowers in panicles and has a strong scent which is most notable at night. The strong smell attracts the bat which comes for pollen and nectar and thus these are generally pollinated by bats.
