Answer 1

Answer:

hey Chinmay , here is your answer

Explanation:

•Apical meristems :- it is present at the growing tips of the plants in order to increase the height of the plant.

•Intercalary meristems :- This tissue helps in increasing the length of the internode it is mainly seen in monocotyledonous plants

•lateral meristems :- it is present in the lateral parts of the plant like stem , roots .

(*if it is for 5 marks draw a neat diagram of a plant by representing the location of the tissues*)

Answer 2

$\bold{\tt\purple{ANSWER: }}$

Apical meristem - It is present at the growing tips of stem and roots. Cell division in this tissue leads to the elongation of stem and roots. Thus , it is involved and primary growth of plants.

Intercalary meristem - It is the part of apical meristem which is left behind during growth period. These are present at the base of leaf and internode region. These lead to the increase in the length of leaf.

Lateral meristem :- It is also called as secondary meristem. It occurs along the sides of the longitudinal axis of the plant. It gives rise to the vascular tissues and cause growth in the girth of stem and roots
