In the springtime you might notice the trees and plants around your home start putting out new buds. Depending on the plant, these buds can look and feel different than the rest of the plant. What you’re seeing is the plant actively growing and creating new parts of itself. How does it do this? Well, it’s a little know process called mitosis. Join us in the backyard, in the woods, and under the microscope for this exciting Creation Clues on Meristems, Mitosis, and new growth!
Creation Clues is an ongoing segment to help Christians know God through studying His handiwork in the world around us. This segment’s primary focus is on the crossroad between science, faith, and the Bible. Join us as we get to know our Creator through His Creation!

My goal is that their hearts, having been knit together in love, may be encouraged, and that they may have all the riches that assurance brings in their understanding of the knowledge of the mystery of God, namely, Christ, in whom are hidden all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge. - Colossians 2:2-3
