Solution

The correct option is B Circinate vernation
Circinate vernation is a characteristic of ferns. It is the manner in which a fern frond emerges. As the fern frond is formed, it is tightly curled so that the tender growing tip of the frond is protected within a coil and is called a crozier. Thus the correct answer is option B.
