Detailed Solution

A is true. The arithmetic growth curve for a height of the plant is typically linear.

Plant height = Initial height + (growth rate X time).

R is also true. Since a single meristematic cell continues to divide and the rest of the cells mature to permanent tissue, the growth is linear.

Hence, R explains A.
