Solution
The correct option is B Asparagus
Asparagus racemosus (satawar, shatavari or shatamull) is a species of asparagus common throughout Nepal, Sri Lanka, India and the Himalayas. Due to destructive harvesting, combined with habitat destruction, and deforestation, the plant is now considered endangered in its natural habitat.
Asparagus racemosus (Shatavari) is recommended in Ayurvedic texts for the prevention and treatment of gastric ulcers, dyspepsia and as a galactogogue. A racemosus has also been used by some Ayurvedic practitioners for nervous disorders. Thus, the botanical name of satawar is not Smilax (china root), Yucca (adam's needle) and Lilium (lily).
Therefore, the correct answer is option B.
