Solution

The correct option is D Mangroves
Mangrove has aerial roots that are used for respiration or aeration and not for water absorption. Mangrove shows viviparous reproduction because, after pollination, the seeds remain attached to the parent tree. They germinate into propagules before dropping into the waters below.
Hence, the correct option is D.
