Answer:

General compensatory

Explanation:

Damages are a remedy in the form of a monetary award to be paid to a claimant as compensation for loss or injury. To warrant the award, the claimant must show that a breach of duty has caused foreseeable loss. To be recognised at law, the loss must involve damage to property, or mental or physical injury; pure economic loss is rarely recognised for the award of damages.

Compensatory damages are grouped into special damages: which are economic losses such as loss of earnings, property damage and medical expenses, and general damages: which are non-economic damages such as pain and suffering and emotional distress. Our ordeal here falls under the General Damage

General damages compensate the claimant for the non-monetary aspects of the specific harm suffered. This is usually termed 'pain, suffering and loss of amenity'.

solmaris [256]
The answer is D. lose apical dominance and grow lateral branches

Apical meristem is a meristem tissue found at the branch tips. When it is active, tree grows in height and the lateral branches will not be as dominant. Imagine conifers and their branches. However, when apical meristem is removed, that apical dominance will be lost, and the lateral branches will become more dominant, so the tree will look more branchy.
