Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
Cells that are undifferentiated dividing cells found in the tips of roots and stems.
A
parenchyma
B
Meristem
C
schlerenchyma
D
None of the above
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The apical meristem, also known as the “growing tip, ‘’ is an undifferentiated meristematic tissue found in the buds and growing tips of roots in plants. Its main function is to trigger the growth of new cells in young seedlings at the tips of roots and shoots and forming buds.

Detailed explanation-2: -Meristematic cells are undifferentiated or incompletely differentiated. They are totipotent and capable of continued cell division. Division of meristematic cells provides new cells for expansion and differentiation of tissues and the initiation of new organs, providing the basic structure of the plant body.

Detailed explanation-3: -apical meristem, region of cells capable of division and growth in the root and shoot tips in plants. Apical meristems give rise to the primary plant body and are responsible for the extension of the roots and shoots.

Detailed explanation-4: -Meristems are regions in plants in which mitosis takes place.

Detailed explanation-5: -Meristem tissues are regions of plant cells capable of division and growth. Meristematic cells are undifferentiated cells, found in the meristem tissue, that can divide into similar cells or give rise to differentiated plant tissues and organs.
