Which alkaloid is antimalarial?

Correct option is C, Quinine. In PLANT SEC METABOLITES problems like this, the accurate statement is Quinine; the others are common mix-ups. Not these: A) Morphine; B) Caffeine; D) Nicotine. Tissue transport questions usually turn on xylem vs phloem, living vs dead cells, or source vs sink.
