Answer:
When I first read this question, all I could think about was the capsized fishing charter called, “the Erik”. The inept captain and crew of this boat caused the death of four passengers while three others remain missing. This disaster occurred back in 2011. I knew two of the passengers. One was recovered in 2013. The other is still listed as missing. However, this question concerns the “best story”. So, I’ll give you the accounts of my own experience. Back in 2013, my group of long-range fishing friends had chartered our annual 8-day trip out of Point Loma, San Diego. We had always chartered the same boat; the Shogun. At our traditional dinner the night before boarding, I remember the most notable topic being discussed was the remnants of Hurricane Ingrid. Ingrid had caused high winds and seas in the area where we wanted to fish.
Answer:
mitosis, cell growth, and differentiation
Explanation:
There are several ways through which plants grow which may include the process of mitosis mainly that involves cell division. The increase in height in plants is attributed to not only cell division but also growth of the newly formed cell.
Mitosis involved division of cell and in cell growth, cells increase their size that ultimately cause growth of plant height. The highly active growth cells are meristem cells that are found at tips of the plants. They are actively dividing zones of plants and with their division and growth plant increases their heights.
Another mechanism, responsible for increase in height is cell differentiation. Differentiation is the process during which cells are specialized to perform specialized function. For example: Xylem are specialized for transport of water. Phloem are specialized for the transport of food. Similarly, some cells are specialized for growth and they are aimed at increasing in size and division that ultimately increase the plant height.
So, mitosis, cell growth, and differentiation are the mechanisms, that increase plant height due to changes in specialized regions of cells in the tips of their branches.
