Which of the following plant cells will show totipotency?

A. Seive tubes

B. Xylem vessels

C. Meristem

D. Cork cells

Answer: Option C

Solution(By Examveda Team)

Meristem is the plant cells that will show totipotency.
Totipotency is the ability of a single cell to divide and produce all of the differentiated cells in an organism. Spores and zygotes are examples of totipotent cells.
Meristematic cells are undifferentiated or incompletely differentiated. They are totipotent and capable of continued cell division. Division of meristematic cells provides new cells for the expansion and differentiation of tissues and the initiation of new organs, providing the basic structure of the plant body.
