Reduced relatives

Hi colleagues, I have come across this sentence in a mock Exam. Trees(grow_grown_grows_are grown) in rainforests can reach 30 meters. I think the four distractors are WRONG.There must be"GROWING"

Hi, Wael Shaltoot,

I agree with you that the best choice to refer to trees that grow without human intervention (as is the case with trees in rainforests) is "growing":

- Trees growing (= that grow) in rainforests can reach 30 meters.
