- Rooting Depth Classification in Vegetable Crops:
- Shallow-Rooted ($30 - 60\text{ cm}$): Onion, garlic, leek, lettuce, radish, spinach.
- Medium Deep-Rooted ($60 - 120\text{ cm}$): Chilli, eggplant (brinjal), French bean, garden pea, carrot, cucumber.
- Deep-Rooted ($\gt 120\text{ cm}$): Asparagus, sweet potato, pumpkin, watermelon.
- Ambiguity: Both Chilli (Option 3) and French bean (Option 4) possess root systems penetrating within the medium depth zone ($60 - 120\text{ cm}$), leading to multiple correct answers and necessitating question withdrawal.
