    A)  short night

    B)  short day and uninterrupted long night

    C)  long days and interrupted night

    D)  long night

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

                     In short day plants flowering takes place when daylength is shorter than a certain critical period (i.e., a long night is required). Under photoperiod longer than a critical point, these plants will not show flowering. e.g., Xanthium strumarium. Long day plant flowering occurs when day length is longer than a certain critical period (i.e., a long day is required for flowering).
