Answer:

B. crown; halo

Explanation:

The word crown has 3 types of root: coroune, croune, "royal crown, ornament for the head as a symbol of sovereignty," from Anglo-French coroune, Old French corone and directly from Latin corona "crown," originally "wreath, garland," related to Greek korōnē "anything curved, a kind of crown."

The word halo is described as a "ring of light around the sun or moon," from Latin halo, from Greek halos "disk of the sun or moon; ring of light around the sun or moon" (also "disk of a shield"); "threshing floor; garden," of unknown origin.
