Question

Plants can spread their branches throughout their life. Give reason.​

Answer 1

Answer:

Because they contain apical meristematic tissues

In-Depth Reason:

All the branches and the central stem of trees (the trunk or bole) terminate in growing points called shoot apical meristems. These are centres of potentially indefinite growth and development, annually producing the leaves as well as a bud in the axis of most leaves that has the potential to grow out as a branch. These shoot apical growing centres form the primary plant body, and all the tissues directly formed by them are called the primary tissues. As in the stems, the growing points of the roots are at their tips (root apical meristems); however, they produce only more root tissue, not whole organs (leaves and stems). The root meristem also produces the root cap that covers the outside of the root tip.
