Solution

Axillary bud:
It is an embryonic tissue that is part of the apical meristematic tissues and is responsible for the growth and development of the shoot apex.
During the period of leaf production and stem extension, some of the cells left behind from the shoot apical meristems constitute the axillary buds.
