This work focuses on why do plants grow faster than humans. The reason for this is meristematic cells.

Meristematic cells are undifferentiated, actively dividing cells found in regions of plants where growth can take place, such as the tips of roots and shoots. These cells are small, with thin walls and large nuclei, and they lack vacuoles. They have the unique ability to continuously divide and give rise to various specialized cells. In contrast, mature cells are differentiated and have specific functions within the plant. They are larger, with thicker cell walls, and contain well-developed vacuoles. These cells form the various tissues and organs of the plant, such as leaves, stems, and roots, and are involved in processes like photosynthesis, storage, and transport. While meristematic cells are essential for growth and development, mature cells maintain the plant's structure and perform its physiological functions.
