Question

Apical meristem arises from floral meristem.

• A. True
• B. False

Answer 1

The correct option is B

False

Apical meristem is a region of rapidly-dividing cells found in a plant's root and shoot tips. Division of these cells always results in primary (vertical) growth, both at the root and shoot. This type of tissue is undifferentiated. The floral meristem which gives rise to the flowers arises from the apical meristem present at the buds of the stem.
