The correct Answer is:
To solve the question of selecting the correct set of plant, organ, and function, we will analyze each option provided in the question step by step. ### Step 1: Analyze the First Option - **Plant:** Vanda - **Organ:** Clinging root - **Function:** Not specified **Analysis:** Vanda is a type of orchid, which is a monocot. Monocots typically have fibrous roots, not clinging roots. Therefore, this option is incorrect. ### Step 2: Analyze the Second Option - **Plant:** Jasmine - **Organ:** Offset - **Function:** Photosynthesis **Analysis:** In jasmine, the stem modification is not an offset; it is known as a stolon. Offsets are typically found in aquatic plants. Therefore, this option is also incorrect. ### Step 3: Analyze the Third Option - **Plant:** Pineapple - **Organ:** Sucker - **Function:** Propagation **Analysis:** In pineapple, suckers are indeed shoots that emerge from the base of the mother plant. They can be harvested and replanted, making this option correct as it accurately describes the organ and its function. ### Step 4: Analyze the Fourth Option - **Plant:** Nepenthes - **Organ:** Leaf tip - **Function:** Photosynthesis **Analysis:** Nepenthes is a pitcher plant, which has modified leaves that form pitcher-like structures to trap insects. The leaf tip does not function in photosynthesis as it is adapted for trapping insects. Therefore, this option is incorrect. ### Conclusion After analyzing all the options, the only correct set is: - **Plant:** Pineapple - **Organ:** Sucker - **Function:** Propagation Thus, the correct answer is **Option C**. ---
