Explanation

Most common correlation found in plant is Apical Dormancy "Apical dormancy" is a term used to describe the dormancy or inactivity of the apical meristem of a plant. The apical meristem is the growing tip of a plant's stem or shoot and is responsible for the production of new cells, which lead to the extension of the stem and the formation of new leaves and branches. Dormancy of the apical meristem means that growth at the tip of the stem is temporarily halted. Apical dormancy can be induced by environmental stressors such as extreme temperatures, water scarcity, or low light conditions. When conditions become unfavorable, the apical meristem goes dormant to conserve energy and protect itself from damage.
