Question

Axis of inflorescence is :

• A. Pedicel
• B. Peduncle
• C. Petiole
• D. All

Answer 1

The correct option is B Peduncle

The peduncle is the main axis of an inflorescence or the axis bearing a flower or fruit. Thalamus is the thickened part of a stem from which the flower organs grow in angiosperms. The petiole is the cylindrical stalk that joins the leaf base with the leaf blade or lamina. The pedicel is a stem that attaches a single flower to the inflorescence.

So, the correct answer is 'Peduncle'.
