Solution

The correct option is C Place of origin
Some roots, called adventitious roots, arise from an organ other than the root usually a stem, sometimes a leaf. They are especially numerous on underground stems, such as rhizomes, corms, and tuber and make it possible to vegetatively propagate many plants from stem or leaf cuttings.
So, the correct option is 'Place of origin'.
