a. e-Rose
b. e-Tulip
c. e-Pansy
d. e- Daffodil

ANSWER: e-Rose
 
Scientists have discovered an electronic rose through implant of circuits inside the vascular system to distribute water and nutrients in the plant. Swedish researchers have created digital and analog electronics circuits inside living plants. The scientists used the vascular system of living roses to built key components of electronic circuits. Researchers have fabricated wires, digital logic and display elements to develop new applications for organic electronics and fresh tools in plant science. Controlling and interfacing with chemical pathways within the plants could lead the way for photosynthesis based fuel cells, sensors and growth regulators plus devices that modulate the internal functions of the plants.
