Solution

The correct option is A Azolla
The bacteria Azolla supplies natural manure to the paddy fields. Azolla is a gliding pteridophyte, which contains as endosymbiont the nitrogen-settling cyanobacterium Anabaena azollae (Nostocaceae family).
Generally developed in the Asian districts, Azolla is either consolidated into the dirt before rice transplanting or developed as a double product alongside rice.
So, the correct answer is A.
