A. Continuous in this case means that it doesn’t grow in separate steps, but that it grows gradually at a constant rate.

Answer:

A. Continuous; a tree grows gradually, not in steps, so this situation is continuous.

Step-by-step explanation:

It is assumed here that the growth is in general terms, because most trees stops height growth after 150 years. A tree continue to grow gradually, adding new rings every year. This situation can be represented by a continuous graph because all points are connnected.
