Step-by-step explanation:

They grow through a combination of cell growth and cell division (mitosis). The key plant growth is meristemn, a type of plant tissue consisting of undifferentiated cells that can continue to divide and differentiate. Meristem allows plant stems and roots to grow longer (primary growth) and wider ( secondary growth ).
