Solution

The correct option is A Root
The root apical meristem or root apex, is a small region at the tip of a root in which cells are capable of repeated division and from which primary root tissues are formed. The root apex is protected as it passes through the soil by an outer region of living parenchyma cells called as the root cap. Hence, the growth can be called as sub-apical.
So, the correct answer is 'Root'
