Solution

The correct option is A Apical
Apical meristem is present at the growing tips of stems and roots and increases the length of the stem and the root. The girth (width) of the stem or root increases due to lateral meristem. Intercalary meristem is present at the base of the leaves and internodes (between two nodes) on twigs.
