What is the process called when dedifferentiated cells mature to perform specific functions?
Options
- ADifferentiation
- BDedifferentiation
- CRedifferentiation
- DMaturation
Correct answer
C. Redifferentiation
Step-by-step solution
Formation of meristems – interfascicular cambium and cork cambium from fully differentiated parenchyma cells. While doing so, such meristems/tissues are able to divide and produce cells that once again lose the capacity to divide but mature to perform specific functions, i.e., get redifferentiated.
