Question

In plants during, embryonic condition:

• A. All cells of the embryo divide
• B. Meristematic activity is confined to single apical cell
• C. Meristematic activity is confined to a group of apical cells
• D. Apical and lateral cells only divide

Answer 1

The correct option is A All cells of the embryo divide

Embryonic tissue in plants refers to the actively growing cells but more than often this term is used to describe the early formation of tissue during its first growth stages. It thus refers to the sporophyte, gametophyte embryos from seedlings as well as meristematic tissues which are always in embryonic state. Under this condition, the growth of this tissues takes place through cell division and the cells of the embryo divide.

So, the correct answer is "option A"

Therefore, the correct answer is option A.
