Explain the concept of growth using these terms: differentiate, meristem, elongation, and vascular cambium.

After the germination of a seed, certain enzymes break down stored food for energy to be used in cell division. Next, elongation of the root tip is followed by elongation of the shoot tip. The meristem of the root tip is covered by a cap of cells. By adding more cells to the root tips, this cap continually sloughs off cells and is replaced as the root grows through the soil. The dividing cells of the root tips start to grow in length and continue to elongate until they are several millimeters behind the root tip and meristem. The root tip will continue to divide and push through soil farther away from the elongating cells. After elongation in the root tips stop, differentiation will start. Cells differentiate when they start to take on different shapes and functions. A nest of cells may start to elongate at specific locations in a crosswise direction to the other cells of the root axis. Having their own meristematic cells, this nest of cells may form a branch root. In woody plants, some of the meristematic cells in the tips of the root and shoot stays meristematic. This ring of meristematic cells, the vascualar cambium, is only usually one or to layers wide.
