Solution

The correct option is B Both A and B
An arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungus is a type of mycorrhiza characterized by the formation of unique structures, arbuscules and vesicles. VAM fungi help plants to capture nutrients such as phosphorus, nitrogen and micronutrients from the soil. Vesicular-arbuscular mycorrhizae are important in helping the plant's nitrate and phosphate uptake.
Thus, the correct answer is option C.
