Stem Cells Function Meristems Plants Divide Mitosis Roots

Meristems in plants contain stem cells that divide via mitosis in roots and shoots, producing unspecialized cells similar to embryonic stem cells.

Qual é a função dos meristemas em plantas? Eles contêm células-tronco vegetais e se dividem por mitose nas raízes e brotos, produzindo células não especializadas que agem como células-tronco embrionárias.
