(d) One single maize root apical meristem can give rise to more than 17,500 new cells per hour, whereas cells in watermelon may increase in size by up to 3,50,000 times. In the former, growth is expressed as an increase in cell number; the later expresses growth as an increase in size of the cell. While the growth of a pollen tube is measured in terms of its length, an increase in surface area denotes the growth in a dorsiventral leaf |
