Solution

The correct option is D Yucca
Yucca plant has developed an obligate symbiotic relationship with a moth called Tagetecula, in relation to pollination. Neither the yucca or the moth can survive without the other. The moth’s larvae depend on the seeds of the yucca plant for food, and the yucca plant can only be pollinated by the moth.

So, the correct option is 'Yucca'.
