Step-by-step solution
Hypophysis is the lowermost cell of the suspensor which gives rise to the root cap and a part of the radicle. Thus, (A) matches with (II). Scutellum is the single, shield-shaped cotyledon found in monocot embryos (like grasses). Thus, (B) matches with (V). Coleorhiza is an undifferentiated sheath that encloses the radicle and root cap in a monocot embryo. Thus, (C) matches with (IV). Coleoptile is a hollow foliar structure that encloses the plumule and a few leaf primordia in a monocot embryo. Thus, (D) matches wit
