D. All of these

Answer: Option C

Solution(By Examveda Team)

A plant pollinated by bats is Kigellia.
Kigelia is a genus of flowering plants in the family Bignoniaceae. The flowers (and later the fruit) hang down from branches on long flexible stems.
Some birds are attracted to the flowers and the strong stems of each flower make ideal footholds. Their scent is most notable at night indicating that they are adapted to pollination by bats, which visit them for pollen and nectar.
