Crops grown with their roots suspended in liquid nutrient solutions.
A
hydroponic crops
B
biotechnology
C
aquaponic crops
D
fodder
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Aeroponics is a subgroup of hydroponics where plant roots are suspended in a dark enclosure, while a nutrient-dense solution is sprayed on the roots at certain intervals (Alshrouf, 2017). Nutrient delivery in this system is very precise and faster growth is possible as roots get ample oxygen.

Detailed explanation-2: -The nutrient film technique is a recirculating hydroponic system. Unlike with deep water culture hydroponics, the roots of the plants in an NFT system are not immersed in water. Instead, the stream (or “film”) only flows over the ends of their roots.
