Solution
The correct option is B Axillary bud
Apical bud is the bud located at the top of the plant. Axil is the angle between the upper side of the stem and a leaf, branch, or petiole.
The axillary bud (or lateral bud) is an embryonic shoot located in the axil of a leaf. Vegetative bud is a leaf bud or the bud that contains embryonic leaf. Flower bud is a bud that develops into a flower.
