C) If the assertion is true but the reason is false
D) If both the assertion and reason are false
E) If the assertion is false but reason is true
Correct Answer: A
Solution :
In cymose branching the growth of the main stem is definite, that is the terminal bud does not continue to grow, but lower down, the main stem produces one or more lateral branches which grow more vigorously than the terminal one. In some plants the terminal bud gets modified in to a flower, tendril, thorn etc.
