Solution

The correct option is B unlimited
Growth can be defined as an irreversible permanent increase in size of an organ or its parts or even of an individual cell. Plant growth is unique because plants retain the capacity for unlimited growth throughout their life. This ability of the plants is due to the presence of meristems at certain locations in their body. The cells of such meristems have the capacity to divide and self-perpetuate.
