Choose the correct option that accurately matches the type of root system with the respective gymnosperm:
List-I (Root System) List-II (Gymnosperm)
A. Coralloid roots with N₂-fixing cyanobacteria I. Pinus
B. Tap roots associated with mycorrhizal fungi II. Ginkgo
C. Branched tap roots III. Cycas

A-III: Cycas has coralloid roots associated with cyanobacteria (Anabaena/Nostoc).
B-I: Pinus has mycorrhizal associations (fungi help absorb water/minerals).
C-II: Ginkgo and Pinus both have branched tap root systems (Cycas is generally unbranched/less branched). Note that in many sources Cycas is considered to have taproots, but the combination here best matches NCERT's description of specialized roots.
