The length of different internodes in a culm of sugarcane is variable because of:
  1. A
    shoot apical meristem
  2. B
    position of axillary buds
  3. C
    size of leaf lamina at the node below each internode
  4. D
    intercalary meristem
View written solutionFree

Correct answer: D

The length of different internodes in a culm of sugarcane is variable because of intercalary meristem. Intercalary meristem is not a part of apical meristem. It occurs in the internodes of grasses (sugarcane) between leaf nodes and enables longitudinal growth of the stem.
