Answer 2

Answer:

• These meristematic cells can be found near the tips of roots and stems.
• The stem and root lengthen as a result of the division of these cells.
• Apical growth of the plant stops when the stem tip is severed.
• Branch development is prompted by the growth of lateral buds.

Explanation:

• A section of a plant used for vegetative (asexual) propagation in horticulture is known as plant cutting. In a suitable medium, such as damp soil, a portion of the source plant's stem or root is inserted.
• A process known as striking occurs when a plant fragment begins to grow as a separate plant from its parent plant if the circumstances are right. New roots and stems can be created by taking cutting from either the stem or the root.
• Known as leaf cuttings, these leaf fragments can be used to cultivate some plants and will result in the production of stems and roots. The cuttings used in grafting are also known as scions.
