d) Roots

Answer 1

b. Intercalary Meristem

this is ur required n correct answer

Answer 2

The correct answer is option b, the Intercalary meristem.

• Intercalary meristem comes under the classification of meristematic tissue.
• The cells of the meristematic tissues are able to divide continuously in the young stage and have the ability to differentiate into other tissues as they mature.
• These meristems are present largely at the internodes/base of the leaves.
• The lengthwise growth of the plant is resultant of this meristem, by increasing the length of the internodes between two leaves.
• The vertical mitotic growth at the point of leaf nodes is thus called intercalary growth.
• These are abundant in monocotyledonous plants. eg. Tall grasses.
