Correct answer: (D) 10 %. Initial size of the leaf, W_0 = 50 cm^2 Absolute growth rate = 5 cm^2/day Relative growth rate is the growth per unit time expressed on a common basis, which is the initial size. Relative growth rate = (Absolute growth rate)/(Initial size) × 100 Relative growth rate = 5/50 × 100 = 10 \% Answer: 10 %

If a leaf is 50 $\text{cm}^2$ in size and the growth rate per day is 5 $\text{cm}^2$ , then its relative growth rate would become ------------.
