The correct option is A Localised
The growth of plants differs from growth of animals in certain aspects. Plants show continuous growth throughout the life. Animals show growth for definite period. Growth in plant is localized to certain regions like root apex, shoot apex etc. Growth in animal is diffused. It takes place in all the parts of the body and the active regions of growth cannot be identified.
Thus, the correct answer is option A.
