C. thick leaves
Thick leaves can help a plant capture more sunlight and also reduce water loss, which is beneficial in low-light environments. They may contain more chlorophyll and provide a larger surface area for photosynthesis, improving the plant's ability to make food in conditions with less sunlight.
