    B)  Atlium

    C)                  Nerium                               

    D)  Cucurbits

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

                    Epidermis is the outermost cellular layer of plant body. Generally it consists of single layer of epidermal cells. But in case of some xerophytes like Nenum, multiple epidermis made up of many layers, thick epidermal cells are present. This helps in reducing the rate of transpiration and provide protection. Croton, Allittm and cucurbits are mesophytic plants, which have single layer of epidermal cells.
