Tissues Location Function
i) …………. Tip of root &stem Increases the length
ii) Intercalary At base of petiole of ----------------
Meristem leaves & branches
iii) ________ lateral sides of root Increases the girth
Answers
Answer:
Cells of apical meristem
Explanation:
meristematic tissues take part in growth of a plant
Explanation:
1) Apical meristem is present at the tip of root and shoot. ... This process increases the length of root and shoot.
2) The intercalary meristems are present at the base of the internodes of stem or leaf.
It helps in the elongation and growth of the plants at the nodes and internodes (stems and leaves) and also enables the longitudinal growth of the stem and leaves (grasses).
The increase in the length of the petiole is due to the activity of the intercalary meristems.
They are called primary meristems as it helps in the primary growth of the plants (elongation of the plant).
3)The lateral meristems are the cylindrical meristems that divide in the radial direction resulting in the increase in girth of the stems and roots. So, the correct answer is 'Cambium'.
