Solution
The correct option is C Meristem The actively growing regions of a plant, such as the plant meristems remain free of infections even when the plant itself is infected. Tissues from shoot apical meristem can be taken and cultured to grow roots and obtain new plants. Therefore virus-free plants can be obtained from the meristematic tissues of the plant.
