(N/A) The growth phase of a plant is typically divided into three distinct stages: the meristematic phase,the elongation phase,and the maturation phase.
$1$. Meristematic Phase: Cells in the root and shoot apices are constantly dividing. These cells are rich in protoplasm,possess large conspicuous nuclei,and have thin primary cell walls with abundant plasmodesmatal connections.
$2$. Elongation Phase: Cells proximal to the meristematic zone undergo enlargement. This phase is characterized by increased vacuolation,cell enlargement,and new cell wall deposition.
$3$. Maturation Phase: Cells reach their maximum size in terms of wall thickening and protoplasmic modification. They differentiate to perform specific functions and attain their final structural form.
