Solution
The correct option is A Schmidt
Tunica corpus theory was given by Schmidt in 1924. The theory highlights the mechanism of the orientation of cells at the shoot apex. According to this theory, the shoot apex can be differentiated into two regions of unlike structure and appearance, a central core, the corpus with large cells dividing irregularly to result in volume growth. It is surrounded by an outer enveloping layer the tunica. Tunica cells are smaller and divide mainly anti-clinically to result in surface growth. It may have a single layer or multilayer.
Thus, the correct answer is option A.
