Question

which sentence uses this meaning of bloom?
bloom noun a blossom
a sudden gust of wind blew a small white bloom off the tree.
mr. patton said, \i think leroy will bloom into a successful and confident young man.\

Explanation:

We need to find the sentence where "bloom" means "a blossom". In the first option, "a small white bloom" refers to a flower (blossom) being blown off the tree. In the second option, "bloom" is used as a verb meaning to develop or grow, not as a noun meaning a blossom. So the first sentence uses "bloom" with the meaning of a blossom.

Answer:

A. A sudden gust of wind blew a small white bloom off the tree.
