define apical meristem, intercalary meristem , lateral meristem
Answers
Explanation:
(1.) Apical Meristem - The apical meristem is the growth region in plants found within the root tips and the tips of the new shoots and leaves.
(2.) Intercalary Meristem - Intercalary meristems are capable of cell division, and they allow for rapid growth and regrowth of many monocots. They are present at internodal region.
(3.) Lateral Meristem - Lateral meristem is the region of plant tissue found on the tips of roots and shoots. It is where cell division occurs to produce new growth.
Answer:
The apical, Lateral, and Intercalary meristems are differentiated on the basis of their location in plants. They all help the plant to grow.
APICAL MERISTEMS:- These tissues are present at root apex and shoot apex of the plant.
LATERAL MERISTEMS:- They are present beneath the cork (called cork cambium) and in the vascular bundles (called Vascular cambium).
INTERCALARY MERISTEMS:- They are found at internodes, base of leaves, etc.
[Meaning of Cambium - Cambium are the regions responsible for growth in thickness]
