Rudy Singh · Answer 1

Option D is correct.

Explanation:

Euphorbia esula is commonly known as leafy spurge, it's a creeping perennial native from central Europe, and most of north Asia.

The leafy spurge has deep roots, that store vital nutrients that allow the plant to recover from most control efforts.

Each plant can produce around 140 seeds per flowering shoot, these seeds are then expelled up to 15 ft. They can subsist up to 8 years in the soil.

This allows the plant to grow exponentially as it infests new regions.
