Why do many plants use the photoperiodic pathway to regulate the timing of flower formation?  

A.  Flower petals carry out high levels of photosynthesis and require high light conditions.
B.  A minimum amount of light is always necessary for flowering.
C.  This allows plants to link flowering to temperature, which corresponds to the season when conditions are optimal.
D.  This allows plants to link flowering to day length, which corresponds to the season when conditions are optimal.
