Answer & Solution
Correct Answer: Option D
C4 plants belong to Monocots and Dicots.
C4 carbon fixation is one of three known photosynthetic processes of carbon fixation in plants.
About 8,100 plant species use C4 carbon fixation, which represents about 3% of all terrestrial species of plants.
C4 carbon fixation is more common in monocots compared with dicots, with 40% of monocots using the C4 pathway, compared with only 4.5% of dicots. Despite this, only three families of monocots use C4 carbon fixation compared to 15 dicot families.
