The correct option is D All of the above
Heterophylly is a phenomenon observed in plants in which the same plant can possess different leaf shapes in various environmental conditions or phases of life. In larkspur and coriander, juvenile phase leaves bear a different shape than that of the mature phase. Also, in buttercup the leaves have different shape in terrestrial habitat and aquatic habitat.
