• A. Scion
• B. Stock
• C. Both A and B
• D. None of the above

Answer 1

The correct option is A Scion

A scion is grafted on a stock. Quality of fruits produced will depend upon the genotype of scion because the scion forms the vegetative part of the plant like stem, branches, leaves, flower, and fruit while the stock forms the root which helps in the absorption of water and minerals from the soil. The genotype of the scion affects the quality of fruit so it should be disease free.

So, the correct answer is option A.
