Solution
The correct option is A Epiphytes The adventitious roots found in the epiphytes are known as the epiphytic root. These roots hang freely in the air and absorb the moisture from the air by a special type of tissue called as velamen. Epiphytic plants are sometimes called as air plants because they do not have roots in the soil. For example, Vanda.
