Answer 1

Answer: (A), (B)

Monstera Fibrous root
Dahlia Fasciculate root

Monstera has a fibrous root system, in which the primary root is short-lived and is replaced by a large number of roots. Dahlia has an adventitious root system and has fasciculated roots, in which tuberous roots arise in a cluster from the base of the stem. Azadirachta or neem has a tap root system with single thick long root with many thin roots grown from it. Basil plants also have a tap root system.

So, the correct options are 'Monstera Fibrous root and Dahlia Fasciculate root'.
