What tissue plays the role of division of new cells
A
Dermal
B
Vascular
C
Ground
D
Meristemic
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The meristem is a type of tissue found in plants. It consists of undifferentiated cells (meristematic cells) capable of cell division. Cells in the meristem can develop into all the other tissues and organs that occur in plants.

Detailed explanation-2: -Meristem is a type of plant tissue consisting of undifferentiated cells that can continue to divide and differentiate. Apical meristems are found at the apex, or tip, of roots and buds, allowing roots and stems to grow in length and leaves and flowers to differentiate.

Detailed explanation-3: -Meristematic tissues in plants are the primary diving tissue. They are responsible for the growth and development of new parts in the plants.

Detailed explanation-4: -Meristematic tissues, or simply meristems, are tissues in which the cells remain forever young and divide actively throughout the life of the plant. When a meristematic cell divides in two, the new cell that remains in the meristem is called an initial, the other the derivative.

Detailed explanation-5: -Meristems are regions in plants in which mitosis takes place. Apical meristems are at the tips of shoots and roots and contribute to increases in length. Lateral meristems are responsible for increases in girth.
