Identify the mismatched pair.
1 Ficus - Provide support
2 Stilt roots - Provide support
3 Pneumatophores - Help in storing food
4 Storage roots - Ipomeoa
Explanation:
option (3) contains the mismatched pair that can be corrected as In some plants such as Rhizophora (growing in swampy areas), many roots came out of the ground and grow vertically upwards. Such roots are called pneumatophores, which help to get oxygen for respiration, i.e. respiratory roots.
