The correct answer is option 3, Sandalwood. Sandalwood is a tropical deciduous plant that is native to the Deccan plateau. This region is located in central and southern India. Sandalwood is known for its aromatic wood, which is highly valued for its fragrance and is used in the production of perfumes, incense, and religious ceremonies. Sandalwood trees are also known for their medicinal properties and are used in traditional Ayurvedic medicine. Teak (option 1) is also a tropical deciduous tree, but it is not specific to the Deccan plateau. Shisam (option 2) and Sal (option 4) are other types of tropical trees, but they are not specifically associated with the Deccan plateau.
