Plants grow throughout their lives; this is called indeterminate growth, and it distinguishes plants from most animals. Although certain parts of plants stop growing (e.g., leaves and flowers), others grow continuously—like roots and stems.

Precursor cells differentiate into specific cell types, which are organized into the tissues and organ systems that make up the functional plant.
