What part of the plant produces cells?
The growing tip, the "apical meristem".
What region produces cells in a plant?
cork cambium, apical meristem, and vascular cambium.
Where is a meristem often found?
An apical meristem is of each root tip is a dividing zone that forms new cells in two directions. The meristem produces new cells in front of itself that become a loose fitting rootcap. Layers of cells in this cap are continually brushed off as the root elongates between soil particles. The cap is perpetually renewed by tiers od cells being formed and pushed down from the meristem.
What could be the function of the root cap.Which is made up of parenchyma cells found at the root tip?
Protecting the apical meristem as the root penetrates deeper into the soil
How are meristems in plants similar to and different from stem cells in animals?
Similarities: They both have 2 types of stem cells Differences: Apical meristem increases length and lateral increases width whereas in animals they become specialized cells to increase the efficiency of the systems in the body. in plants apical and lateral meristems can differentiate into any kind of cell whereas in animals only embryonic stem cells can do that not tissue stem cells.

The growing tip, the "apical meristem".
What is the function of apical meristem?
Apical meristem is found at the tip of the root and shoot and is made of cells that divide at a rapid pace. The apical meristem helps the plant to grow up above the soil and down into the ground. This growth is called primary growth.
What region produces cells in a plant?
cork cambium, apical meristem, and vascular cambium.
In which part or parts of the root are plant cells most actively carrying mitosis?
Apical Meristem
Is a region that produces cells in a plant?
cork cambium, apical meristem, and vascular cambium. all the above
Where is the meristem located?
Groups of cells that are the source of new cells form tissue called meristem. Meristem cells aren't specialized, but when they divide, some of the new cells specialize into tissues. Areas of growth that lengthen the tips of roots and stems are called apical meristems. Lateral meristems, found all along woody roots and stems, increase the thickness of these plant parts.
Which cells arise from bone marrow and migrate to the epidermis?
macrophages called epidermal dendritic cells
How can a tree grow?
By planting a seed and watering it.. Trees increase in height by building new cells from the apical meristem at the top of the tree. The trunk expands in diameter by producing new cells around the circumference from the vascular cambium, which produces xylem and phloem to transport food and water, and the cork cambium, which produces bark. Branches and roots grow longer by producing new cells from the lateral meristems at the tip, similar to the apical meristem. The apical meristem and cambium contain meristematic tissue, which is a collection of undifferentiated cells that dive and then differentiate to become specific cell types.
