Question

very short note on meristematic tissue

Answer 1

A meristem is the tissue in most plants containing undifferentiated cells (meristematic cells), found in zones of the plant where growth can take place.Meristematic cells give rise to various organs of the plant and keep the plant growing.

Answer 2

THE GROWTH OF PLANTS OCCURS ONLY IN CERTAIN SPECIFIC REGIONS THIS IS Because the dividing tissue also known as meristematic tissues. meristematic tissues are classified as APICAL MERISTEM , LATERAL MERISTEM AND INTERCALARY. apical meristem tissue is present at the growing tips of stems and roots and increases the length of the plant and the root .The girth of the stem or root increases due to lateral meristem (cambium) . Intercalary meristematic seen in some plants is located near the node. cells of meristematic tissue are very active they have dense cytoplasm , thin cellulose walls and prominent nuclei . They lack vacuoles
