Plants having little or no secondary growth are

A

conifers

B

deciduous angiosperms

C

grasses

D

cycads

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C
Secondary growth occurs due to the presence of vascular cambium. Grasses are monocot and lacks vascular cambium. Therefore, they do not show secondary growth.
Deciduous angiosperms are usually woody dicot plants and show secondary growth. Conifers and cycads are gymnosperms and usually show anomalous secondary growth.
