Solution

The correct option is C Lenticels
Pneumatophores are specialized root structures that grow out from the water surface and facilitate aeration necessary for respiration in hydrophytic trees.
Lenticels, which are the medium for respiration, did this function.
Lenticels are small openings (lenticels) through which air enters, passing through the soft spongy tissue to the roots beneath the mud.

So, the correct option is 'Lenticels'.
