Solution

The correct option is A Monopodium
The monopodium is the main axis of a plant, such as the trunk of a spruce, that maintains a single line of growth, giving off lateral branches. In the female plant, the apical meristem remains unaffected. Hence, the growth pattern is monopodium. The stem of Cycas shows monopodial growth.
So, the correct answer is 'Monopodium'
