Options
- AA - 1, B - 2, C - 3, D - 4
- BA - 2, B - 1, C - 4, D - 4
- CA - 2, B - 1, C - 3, D - 4
- DA - 2, B - 4, C - 1, D - 4
Correct answer
C. A - 2, B - 1, C - 3, D - 4
Step-by-step solution
The region of meristematic activity contains cells that are very small, thin-walled, and have dense protoplasm, the region of elongation is characterized by rapid elongation and enlargement of cells, the region of maturation has cells that gradually differentiate and mature, and the root cap protects the tender apex of the root.
