this is NOT
the character of a meristematic tissue
Answers
Answer:
Meristematic tissue has a number of defining features, including small cells, thin cell walls, large cell nuclei, absent or small vacuoles, and no intercellular spaces. The apical meristem (the growing tip) functions to trigger the growth of new cells in young seedlings at the tips of roots and shoots and forming buds.
Answer:
Characteristics of the meristematic cells:-
1) The cells are isodiametric with thin cellulosic cell walls with no secondary cell wall.
2) They divide rapidly hence, there is no stored food in these cells.
3) They are compactly arranged cells with no intercellular spaces.
4) They have a dense cytoplasm with a prominent nucleus.
5) Endoplasmic reticulum and mitochondria are not fully developed in these cells.
6) They are the most metabolically active cells.
7) These cells get differentiated once they become non-dividing i.e, permanent tissue (non-dividing cells which perform a specific function).
So, the correct answer is 'Cells are arranged with intercellular spaces'.
