The correct Answer is:
### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding Primary Meristems**: - Primary meristems are a type of meristematic tissue in plants that are responsible for primary growth. This growth primarily involves an increase in length and height of the plant. 2. **Origin of Primary Meristems**: - Primary meristems originate from embryonal tissue. This means they are formed during the early stages of plant development, specifically from the cells that make up the embryo. 3. **Characteristics of Primary Meristems**: - These tissues consist of undifferentiated embryonic cells that are actively dividing. They have thin cell walls and large nuclei, which are typical features of meristematic cells. 4. **Evaluating the Options**: - The question provides four options regarding the origin of primary meristems: - (a) Since birth from embryonal tissue - (b) During secondary meristem - (c) By de-differentiation - (d) None of the above - Based on the understanding that primary meristems originate from embryonal tissue, we can conclude that option (a) is correct. 5. **Conclusion**: - Therefore, the correct answer to the question is that primary meristems originate since birth from embryonal tissue.
