MCQ
Permanent or mature cells are formed by
  • A
    Cell division in the primary meristem
  • B
    Cell division in the secondary meristem
  • Both ($a$) and ($b$)
  • D
    Specialisation of secondary meristem

Answer

Correct option: C.
Both ($a$) and ($b$)
c
Divisions of cells in both primary and secondary meristems results in the formation of new cells, which become structurally and functionally specialised and loose the ability to divide. Such cells are called permanent or mature cells
