The root of a plant is:(i) positively phototropic but negatively geotropic(ii) positively geotropic but negatively phototropic(iii) negatively phototropic but positively hydrotropic (iv) negatively hydrotropic but positively phototropic(a) (i) and (ii)     (b) (ii) and (iii)     (c) (iii) and (iv)     (d) (i) and (iv)


(b) (ii) and (iii).
