Question

MULTIPLE CHOICE QUESTION:

1.Meristematic tissue in plants are:

options:
a) localised and permanent
b) not limited to certain region
c) localised and dividing cells
d) growing in volume

pls do answer only from these option and explain why is it the answer....whoever answers I will follow them.​

Answer 1

Answer:

Option C

Explanation:

Meristematic tissues, or simply meristems, are tissues in which the cells remain forever young and divide actively throughout the life of the plant. When a meristematic cell divides in two, the new cell that remains in the meristem is called an initial, the other the derivative.

Hope it helps.

Answer 2

Plants' meristematic tissues are (c) localised and dividing cells

Explanation:

• The term "meristematic tissue" is used in plant biology to describe live tissues that contain undifferentiated cells, which are the building blocks of all specialized plant structures. The "meristem" is the zone in which these cells exist.
• Plant growth is restricted to certain areas because dividing cells, also known as meristematic cells, are localized rather than spread throughout the plant body.
• Meristematic cell proliferation is characterized by an increase in the number of cells rather than an increase in the volume of existing cells.
