Question

Plants are all of the following except:
Options
A Parasitic
B Autotropic
C Anisocytic
Correct Answer
D Saprophytic
Correct Answer

Option C is the correct answer.

Detailed Explanation

Plants can exhibit various nutritional modes: most are autotrophic (producing their food via photosynthesis), some are parasitic (obtaining nutrients from a host), and some are saprophytic (obtaining nutrients from dead organic matter). Anisocytic, however, describes a specific type of stomata (pores on leaves), not a general characteristic or nutritional mode of plants.

Hint

Three of these terms describe how plants obtain nutrients or their overall metabolic strategy. One describes a specific cellular structure.
