Solution

The correct option is C

Phyllotaxy


Phyllotaxy

The pattern of arrangement of leaves on the stem is called Phyllotaxy.

As a stem grows at its apex, new leaf buds form along the stem by a highly controlled developmental process. Leaf arrangement along the plant stem depends on the species and is an important identifying characteristic.
