2. By what process does meristem tissue produce more cells for plant growth? A. Sexual reproduction C. Mitosis B. Meiosis D. Transpiration

The correct answer is C. Mitosis.<br /><br />Meristem tissue produces more cells for plant growth through the process of mitosis. Mitosis is a type of cell division that results in two daughter cells, each with the same number and kind of chromosomes as the parent cell. This process allows for the production of new cells that contribute to the growth and development of the plant.
