Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The two basic patterns of growth established in the embryo include the root-shoot axis along the longitudinal plane and the radial axis along the transverse plane, which gives rise to the different parts of the plant body such as leaves, stems, and roots. Therefore, choice C, radial, is the correct answer. The other options (tangential, oblique, orbital, and circular) do not accurately describe the axis of growth established in the embryo.
