Solution

Dear student,

Juvenile Phase Mature Phase

It is the phase followed by germination, in which the plant increases in size as the cells enlarge and differentiate to form stems, leaves and roots. In some woody plants, this stage is characterised by the plant’s inability to form flowers, or the loss or reduction in the ability of cuttings to form adventitious roots. This phase is marked by the formation and development of the sexual organs (the flower buds, flowers, fruit and seed).

Rooting ability is not diminished or lost Rooting ability is diminished or lost.

Regards.
