According to the RHS Dictionary of Gardening, there are approximately 1,000 species of bamboos.

What grows really quickly?

Well we don't know for sure, but probably something with fast DNA replication and cells that can quickly expand in size – organisms that inflate their cells with lots of water are a good bet. For total growth, try giant kelp. That can grow about 60cm per day, although the average (in spring) is more like 27cm.

What is the fastest growing organ in the natural world?

What fruit grows fast?

While the rest of our body shrinks as we get older, our noses, earlobes and ear muscles keep getting bigger. That's because they're made mostly of cartilage cells, which divide more as we age.

What is the only type of human cell that is never replaced?

The Question: Which cells in the human body are never replaced? The Short Answer: So far, the only cell type that we can confidently say is never replaced is cerebral cortex neurons.

What is the fastest part in our body?

The eye: the fastest muscle in the human body | Novartis.

Who runs faster tiger or deer?

What's the second fastest land animal?

A pronghorn can run up to 60 miles per hour, which makes them the second-fastest land animal in the world (cheetah – 61 mph). Although second to the cheetah, the pronghorn can sustain its speed for much longer.
