Solution
The correct option is D Pandanus
Modified aerial adventitious roots which develop from lower part of stem node for mechanical support are called as stilt roots. Stilt roots are generally present in plants growing in loose sandy soils. As the normal roots are not properly fixed, these modified roots enter obliquely into soil and act as supporting organs. For example, Pandanus. Thus, the correct answer is option B.
