New cells in plants specialise into the cells of roots, leaves and flowers.
Meristem = area of plant growth, where specialised cells divide repeatedly.
Lateral meristem = leads to increased growth
Apical meristem = leads to increase height and longer roots
Xylem tubes = transports water from roots to stem and leaves and replaces lost water.
Phloem tubes = transports dissolved food to the whole plant for respiration or storage.
