Solution

The correct option is A Exogenous lateral outgrowth
Leaf is a flattened structure of a vascular plant, green and blade-like, that is attached to a stem directly or via a stalk. Leaf is the principal lateral appendage of the stem. Leaves are the main organs of photosynthesis and transpiration. The leaves and stem together form the shoot.
Thus, the correct answer is option A.
