They are called meristems or apical meristems when they are located at the tips of roots.

Cell division is essential for growth in plants
The Meristematic cell is capable of continued cell division in plants.
Plant cells are produced through a process called cell division (mitosis), where existing cells divide to form new cells. An important factor that aids in plant growth is a group of hormones called cytokinins, which promote cell division and regulate various growth processes in plants. Additionally, nutrients such as nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium are essential for cell growth and function in plants.
They are called cell towers.
Uncontrolled cell growth is usually called a tumor. When there is a condition that causes uncontrolled cell growth of abnormal cells, it is called cancer.
Cell Cycle
The growth system of plants primarily involves two key processes: cell division and cell elongation. Plants grow from specific regions called meristems, where undifferentiated cells divide and differentiate into various types of tissues. This growth occurs both at the tips of roots and shoots (apical growth) and in lateral meristems, which contribute to thickness (secondary growth). Additionally, factors such as light, water, nutrients, and hormones play crucial roles in regulating plant growth and development.
No, simple cell division in plants and animals is not identical. Plants rely on cell division in meristematic tissues for growth, while animals use cell division in tissues for growth and repair. Additionally, plants typically have a rigid cell wall that must be divided during cell division, unlike animal cells.
Mitosis
cell wall/cell membrane
Plants have a structure called a cell plate which partitions the daughter cell from parent cell.
