Solution
The correct option is D Monotropa
Monotrapa or Indian pipe commonly grows on humus rich soil. Unlike most plants, they do not contain chlorophyll; they are myco-heterotrophs. Monotropa is a flowering plant and its roots have mycorrhizal association. It gets its food through parasitism upon fungi and not from photosynthesis. Thus, the correct answer is option C.
