Options

A. a(i), b(iv), c(iii), d(ii)
B. a(ii), b(iv), c(i), d(iii)
C. a(iv), b(ii), c(iii), d(i)
D. a(ii), b(i), c(iv), d(iii)

Answer

To solve the matching question between Column I (Plants) and Column II (Vegetative Reproduction Methods), we will analyze each plant and its corresponding method of vegetative reproduction step by step.

### Step-by-Step Solution:

1. **Identify the Plant: Turmeric**
- Turmeric reproduces vegetatively through **Rhizome**.
- **Match:** (a) Turmeric → (ii) Rhizome

2. **Identify the Plant: Crocus**
- Crocus reproduces vegetatively through **Corm**.
- **Match:** (b) Crocus → (iv) Corm

3. **Identify the Plant: Vallisneria**
- Vallisneria reproduces vegetatively through **Stolon**.
- **Match:** (c) Vallisneria → (i) Stolon

4. **Identify the Plant: Opuntia**
- Opuntia reproduces vegetatively through **Aerial shoot**.
- **Match:** (d) Opuntia → (iii) Aerial shoot

### Final Matches:
- (a) Turmeric → (ii) Rhizome
- (b) Crocus → (iv) Corm
- (c) Vallisneria → (i) Stolon
- (d) Opuntia → (iii) Aerial shoot

### Summary of Matches:
- A → ii
- B → iv
- C → i
- D → iii
