Solution

The correct option is A Inflorescence
An inflorescence is the arrangement of flowers on the floral axis of the plant. Two major types of inflorescence are - 1. Racemose - the shoot axis continues to grow indefinitely and the flowers are borne in acropetal succession.
2. Cymose - the main axis terminates into a flower and has limited growth and the flowers are borne in a basipetal order. Examples are begonia, teak, and Solanum.
So, the correct answer is option A.
