Question

select the correct answer
which word or phrase best completes this sentence?
la ______ es una planta que crece en clima caliente.
a. maíz
b. mango
c. café
d. caña de azúcar

Explanation:

We need to find the word that is a plant growing in a hot climate. Let's analyze each option:

• Option A: "maíz" (corn) is a crop but not typically described as a plant in the same way as the others here in terms of the plant structure, and its growth climate is not as strictly hot as some.
• Option B: "mango" is a fruit tree, but the question refers to a plant (the crop plant itself, not the tree for fruit in the same way).
• Option C: "café" (coffee) is a plant, but its growth conditions are a bit different.
• Option D: "caña de azúcar" (sugarcane) is a plant that is well - known to grow in hot climates.

Answer:

D. caña de azúcar
