Question

Difference between merismatic tissue and permanent tissue

Answer 1

Tissue is a group of cells with more or less common origin and doing a specific function. Plant tissues are broadly classified into two categories based on their capacity of cell division. They are (1) Meristematictissues and (2) Permanent tissues. Meristem is a type of tissue system in plants, composed of a mass of undifferentiated cells and their primary function is to take part in the growth of plants. Permanent tissues are differentiated tissues doing specific functions such as conduction, providing mechanical support or carrying out photosynthesis etc. Permanent tissues are originated and differentiated from meristematic tissues. In this post we will discuss about the similarities and differences between two fundamentally different tissue systems namely Meristematic tissues and Permanent tissues.

Answer 2

Answer:

Explanation:

MERISMATIC TISSUES - Thin walled cells and mainly isodermatic with compactly arranged without intercellular spaces . The cells are undifferentiated.

PERMANENT TISSUES - The cells can be thin or thick walled and also may be living or dead with intercellular space provided . It are formed because of result of division in meristematic tissue .
