Where do lenticels develop?

Think it through first, then pick an option.

  1. a in the leaf
  2. b in the root
  3. c in the bark of the stem
  4. d in the flower
Answer and explanation

Correct answer: c in the bark of the stem

Lenticels are on the bark of the mature stem; the leaf has stomata.

Why the other options are wrong

  • a in the leaf: "in the leaf" does not fit here. Lenticels are on the bark of the mature stem; the leaf has stomata.
  • b in the root: "in the root" does not fit here. Lenticels are on the bark of the mature stem; the leaf has stomata.
  • d in the flower: "in the flower" does not fit here. Lenticels are on the bark of the mature stem; the leaf has stomata.
