A plant grows by increasing its cell population while the cells specialize their functions. Increasing cell population is done by cell division (also called mitosis). Before a mother cell divides into two daughter cells, it makes an exact copy of its genome first. As a result, the two daughter cells usually have exactly the same genetic makeup as their mother cell. Therefore, every living cell of a plant should contain all the genes the plant has and thus has the capacity to grow back to a full plant. This is called cell totipotency .
