Answers
Answer:
Meristematic cells are generally small and cuboidal with large nuclei, small vacuoles, and thin walls. A plant has four kinds of meristems: the apical meristem and three kinds of lateral—vascular cambium, cork cambium, and intercalary meristem.
Answer:
The tissues in plants which can divide and grow until specific age of the plant are called meristematic tissues, these tissues are mainly responsible for the growth in height, broadness of the stem, and the tip of the bud which form the flower.
Generally there are three types of meristematic tissue :-
(i) Apical meristem - This type of the meristematic tissue are found in the growing tip of plant and are responsible for the growth in height.
(ii) Intercalary meristem - This type of meristematic tissue is found between the two nodes of a plant and is responsible for the leaf expansion
(iii) Lateral meristem - This type of meristematic tissue is found in the sides of the stem of a plant and is responsible for the width and broadness of the stem which gives stability to the plant and prevents it from falling or bending
