Correct Answer: A
Solution:
[a] In the given figure of shoot apical meristem, the parts marked as 1, 2 and 3 are respectively leaf primordium; shoot apical meristem and axillary bud (present in the axils of leaf and are capable of forming a branch or a flower).
The shoot apical meristem is a population of cells located at the tip of the shoot axis.
It produces lateral organs, stems, tissues and regenerates itself.
