Answer: 4. C

Key idea: in a monocot seed (grain), the radicle lies inside a protective sheath called the coleorhiza.

In the figure, A is the scutellum, B is the plumule region (shoot apex with leaves), C is the radicle and D is the coleorhiza covering it. The part that forms root on germination is the radicle, C.
