Solution

The correct option is C Hallucinogen
The given image shows flower of Datura plant. Datura is a psychedelic plant. It contains tropane alkaloids which can cause hallucinations. The drug obtained from Datura is hallucinogenic which produces dream like state and can even cause psychosis, a condition of loss of contact with external reality. Hallucinogenic drugs change mood, behaviour, thoughts and perceptions.
So, the correct answer is 'Hallucinogen'.
