Write things down:

1. fuzzy seeds ----> long stems and no white flowers

2. curled leaves ----> white flowers

3. thorny seedpods ----> curled leaves

Now, the specimen has long stems and curled leaves. From 2, the specimen must have white flowers, so E is out. Again, because it has white flowers, then it can't have fuzzy seeds (from 1).

We're left with answer options A, B and C.
Take each one down:

A. Although if a plant has thorny seedpods it will also have curled leaves, the reverse might not be true. A could be true, but we can't be sure.
B. As with A, it might be possible, but we don't know for sure if it is or not.
C. Is correct. If the plant had fuzzy seeds, then it would not have white flowers (as pointed out in 1). But it has! So indeed this is the answer.

Dana Long Stems and White flowers can't go together.This is the very first condition.

Yes, that's true, but only if the plant has fuzzy seeds. If the plant doesn't have fuzzy seeds, then I do believe it's possible.

D means that the plant has fuzzy seeds and thorny seedpods. My reasoning why this is incorrect:

fuzzy seeds ---> long stems and no white flowers

thorny seedpods ---> curled leaves ---> white flowers (this one was obtained by merging 2 and 3)

As you can see, there's a contradiction in there.

I must admit that C seems to be the answer. What's OA?
