Solution

The correct option is B Banana plant
Breeding frequency refers to the number of times an organism breeds/ reproduces to produce offspring. Some organisms mate several times in their lifetime while some only once.

The banana plant is a monocarpic perennial plant. It reproduces sexually only once in its lifetime and then dies. Hence, it flowers only once in its life.

(A) Banana plant
