Please explain why opt a is wrong?

Lenticel is never found below stomata. I think this information is wrong.

Potato is an example for having Lenticels in the root.

@anag
Yes

@sunitasaxena 1. Potato is an example for having Lenticels in the root but it does not mean lenticels are found under the stomata. Isn't it?

2. Lenticels can be found both underground and on the bark (above ground)?

3. Is opt c the only correct answer?

@anag
The important function of the lenticels: The lenticels help in the gaseous exchange between the atmosphere and the internal tissue of the stem. The lenticels also helps in transpiration called as the lenticular transpiration. ... The lenticels help in allowing the oxygen into and carbon dioxide
