What botanical structure is a cabbage head?

The bud at the tip of a stem?
The bud at the tip of a stem is called the apical bud. It is responsible for the vertical growth of the plant and produces hormones that inhibit the growth of lateral buds below it. The apical bud helps regulate the plant's overall growth and development.
Why is the terminal bud considered an active parts of the stem?
The terminal or apical bud is found at the end of a branch marking the end of that years growth. Growth the following year will obviously start from this point. It is different from a lateral bud which grows from the side of the branch.
What is the function of a apical bud on a plant?
The apical bud is responsible for the growth and development of the main shoot of a plant. It produces hormones that inhibit the growth of lateral buds, directing the plant's energy towards vertical growth. This helps the plant to grow taller and reach for light, supporting its overall health and development.
What hormone is responsible for apical dominance?
The hormone responsible for apical dominance in plants is auxin. Auxin is produced primarily in the shoot apical meristem and it inhibits the growth of lateral buds, promoting the dominance of the apical meristem in controlling the plant's growth.
What does the distance between the terminal bud and last years terminal bud scar represent?
the age of the brach
What would happen to the plant if you removed the apical bud?
Removing the apical bud of a plant would result in the inhibition of vertical growth and branching. This is because the apical bud produces hormones that suppress the growth of lateral buds. As a result, the plant may become bushier as lateral buds are allowed to grow freely.
Does an onion bulb have an apical bud?
