• B. Small and hairy
• C. Small and light
• D. Large and sticky

Answer 1

Answer: (C)

Small and light

Orchids have the smallest seeds in the world. Orchids are extremely light and produced in great numbers. Most range characteristics of orchids are their small. Their thick, white roots are specially adapted to absorb moisture and dissolved nutrients. Because these tropical orchids usually grow high in the trees, rather than on the forest floor, they are accustomed to good air circulation and plenty of light.

So the correct answer is 'Small and light'.
