Correct Answer: Option B
Explanation:
The stem is characterized by the presence of nodes, which are the junctions where leaves and buds arise, and internodes, the segments between two nodes. While some stems are modified to grow underground (like potatoes or onions) for storage or perennation, the primary and most common form of the stem is aerial, growing above the ground. Statements 1 and 2 are correct.
