Question: 1 / 50

What type of weed germinates in the spring, develops a root system and a low-growing cluster of leaves called a rosette?

Annual weed

Biennial weed

The Biennial weed is the correct answer because it germinates in the spring, develops a root system, and forms a rosette in the first season. In the second year, it produces flowers and seeds before dying. As for the other options, an Annual weed only survives for one growing season, dies, and then regrows from seeds. A Perennial weed grows for many years and does not die after producing seeds. A Quinquennial weed is not a common term in botany and therefore, is not a correct or applicable option.
