Students have asked these similar questions
A classmate says that if one part of a plant is found to contain cells, then that means that every part of that plant will have the same type of cells. How should you respond to his claim?
(a) He is correct. Every part of the plant will have the same type of cells
(b)He is somewhat correct. ONly certain part of a plant contain cells, but those that do will have identical cells
(c) He is incorrect. Only certain parts of a plant contain cells
(d) He is somewhat correct. Every part of the plant will contain cells, but there may be different types of cells in a single plant
(a) Describe the role of mitosis in the growth of a plant.
(b) Explain why there are more cells observed in mitosis in the root tip
than in the woody stem.
Since you're done with your study of plant tissues, you may now answer the questions about them
below.
1. How do meristems accomplish the production of new, mitotically healthy cells?
2. What is indeterminate growth in plants?
3. What is de-differentiation in plant cells?
