The flowering of a plant in response to the photoperiod is called photoperiodism. The photoperiodic stimulus can be detected by the leaves. Hence the plant will exhibit this phenomenon even if the plant bears a single leaf. If all the leaves of the plant are removed photoperiodic response does not occur. Thus, the correct answer is option B.
