The correct Answer is:
**Step-by-Step Solution:** 1. **Understanding Bulbs**: A bulb is a specialized underground stem found in some plants. It serves as a storage organ for nutrients and energy. 2. **Structure of Bulbs**: The bulb has roots at its lower side and forms a rosette of leaf bases at its upper side. This structure is crucial for the plant's growth and survival. 3. **Types of Bulbs**: There are two main types of bulbs based on the arrangement of their fleshy leaves: - **Tunicated Bulbs**: These have fleshy leaves arranged in a concentric manner, covered by dry membranous leaf bases known as tunics. - **Non-Tunicated Bulbs**: These do not have any tunics. 4. **Compound Tunicated Bulbs**: If a bulb has multiple tunics, it is classified as a compound tunicated bulb. 5. **Garlic Bulb Classification**: The bulb of garlic has multiple dry membranous leaf bases, which means it is classified as a compound tunicated bulb. 6. **Conclusion**: Therefore, the correct answer to the question is that the bulb of garlic is a compound tunicated bulb. ---
