Regions of undifferentiated cells capable of cell division
1 answer
Regions of undifferentiated cells capable of cell division are called meristems. Meristems are present in plants and are responsible for the growth and development of new cells. The two main types of meristems are apical meristems and lateral meristems. Apical meristems are present at the tips of plant roots and shoots and promote vertical growth. Lateral meristems are found in the cambium layer of plants and promote horizontal growth. Both types of meristems continuously produce new cells that can differentiate into various cell types and contribute to the plant's growth and development.
