The botanical name of radish is

Answer & Solution
Correct Answer: Option B
The botanical name of radish is Raphanus sativus.
Radishes are annual or biennial brassicaceous crops grown for their swollen tap roots which can be globular, tapering or cylindrical. The root skin colour ranges from white through pink, red, purple, yellow and green to black, but the flesh is usually white.
Radishes are a fast-growing, annual, cool-season crop. The seed germinates in three to four days in moist conditions with soil temperatures between 18 and 29°C. Radishes grow best in full sun in light, sandy loams, with a soil pH of 6.5 to 7.0, but for late-season crops, a clayey loam is ideal.
