The type of inflorescence where the flowers are arranged laterally, in acropetal succession is known as racemose inflorescence. There are different types of racemose inflorescence a few mentioned below:

Column I Column II

Simple raceme Unbranched main axis and pedicellate flowers

Spike Unbranched main axis and sessile flowers

Catkin Unbranched drooping main axis and the flowers are sessile

Spadix main axis is fleshy and they bear sessile flowers

Suggest Corrections

Column I	Column II	Column III
a)	1) The main axis continues to grow, the flowers are born laterally	K) Racemose
b)	2) The main axis terminates in a flower, hence is limited in growth	L) Cymose
