Answer: axile.
- A parietal
- B marginal
- C axile
- D basal
Correct answer: C. axile
Explanation: In axile placentation the placenta is axial and ovules attach to the central axis of a chambered ovary (e.g. tomato, lemon).
In a dicot stem, vascular bundles are arranged in a single ring (with cambium between xylem and phloem, enabling secondary growth); in a monocot stem, bundles are scattered throughout with no cambium, so monocots can't undergo secondary growth (no wood formation).
