The region of stem between two nodes is the
A
lateral bud
B
shoot system
C
node
D
internode
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -…the stem is called a node, and the region between successive nodes is called an internode. Stems bear leafy shoots (branches) at the nodes, which arise from buds (dormant shoots).

Detailed explanation-2: -In a plant, the point on the stem where leaves develop is called a node. The region between two adjacent nodes is called the internode. So, the correct answer is ‘Internode’ Was this answer helpful?

Detailed explanation-3: -Lateral buds and leaves grow out of the stem at intervals called nodes; the intervals on the stem between the nodes are called internodes. The number of leaves that appear at a node depends on the species of plant; one leaf per node is common, but two or or more leaves may grow at the nodes of some species.

Detailed explanation-4: -(Science: plant biology) The portion of a stem between the level of insertion of two successive leaves or leaf pairs (or branches of an inflorescence). A segment of a stem between two nodes. The portion of stem found between lateral meristems in plants.

Detailed explanation-5: -Nodes and internodes are the organized elements of the vascular plant’s stem. The nodes are specific areas which contain lateral buds from which the flower, branches as well leaves arise. The internodes is the distance between two successive nodes from where the xylem and phlegm passes through.
