evasive doesn't have -vad- in it, but the meaning of the root -vad- in the word invade, if it had to be one of the options, i would have to say "go".

Answer:

go

Step-by-step explanation:

Evasive does not have vad in its adjectival form but it does in evade.The same as in invade, etymology of vade, coming from wade in between years 1445- 1495, says that it comes from the word go.Invade means to go into with hostile intentions and evade means escape , go somewhere else.
