Solution

The correct option is D all the above
The roots that arise from plant parts other than radicle are called adventitious roots. They can be from different parts of the plant and are accordingly called nodal roots, stem roots, crown roots, junction roots, etc. These are present in some monocots and dicots. Adventitious roots can be found in grass, Monstera, and banyan trees. Grass and Monstera are monocots whereas, the banyan tree (Ficus) is a dicot.
