The correct Answer is:
To solve the question regarding the portion of the embryonal axis between the plumule (future shoot) and cotyledons, we can follow these steps: ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understand the Components**: - The embryonal axis consists of several parts: the plumule (which will develop into the shoot), the cotyledons (seed leaves), and the radicle (which will develop into the root). 2. **Identify the Relevant Sections**: - The question specifically asks for the section between the plumule and the cotyledons. 3. **Define the Terms**: - **Plumule**: The part of the embryo that develops into the shoot. - **Cotyledons**: The first leaves that develop from the seed. - **Radicle**: The part that develops into the root. 4. **Locate the Section**: - The section of the embryonal axis that lies between the plumule and the cotyledons is known as the **apicotyle**. 5. **Review Other Options**: - **Hypocotyle**: This is the part between the cotyledons and the radicle. - **Coleoptile**: This is the protective sheath covering the plumule. - **Coleorhiza**: This is the protective sheath covering the radicle. 6. **Conclusion**: - Based on the definitions and locations, the correct answer to the question is **Apicotyle**. ### Final Answer: The portion of the embryonal axis between the plumule (future shoot) and cotyledons is called **Apicotyle**. ---
