Why can some plants be cloned from a single cell?
◦ Plant cells can produce genes to replace those lost during development.
◦ Plant cells are capable of self-renewal by utilizing cellular components from adjacent cells.
◦ Plant cells can dedifferentiate and give rise to all of the specialized cells required to produce an entire plant.
◦ Plant cells do not differentiate even when mature, so any cell can grow into an entire plant.
