Solution
The growth of tendrils in grapes plants is due to rapid cell division in tendril cells that are away from the support.
Explanation:
The growth of tendrils in grape plants is an example of thigmotropism (response to touch). When a tendril touches a support, the cells on the opposite side grow faster, causing it to bend and coil around the support.
