Question

5) __________ meristem enables the growth of branches.

a) Apical b) Lateral c) Permanent d) Intercalary​

Answer 1

Answer: The correct option is a) Apical

Explanation:

Plants grow continuously due to the presence of their specialized tissues called meristems.

Apical meristems have those special meristematic tissue which are present at the tips of stems and roots. These tissues are responsible for the increase in length of the plants.

The primary growth of plants is controlled by root apical meristems or shoot apical meristems, whereas the secondary growth is managed by the two lateral meristems, called the vascular cambium and the cork cambium.
