Question

what is basis of classifying meristematic
tissues to apical, intercalary and lateral meristematic
tissues?​

Answer 1

ANSWER:

On the basis of its position, meristem is grouped as apical, intercalary and lateral meristem.  

Apical meristem is present at the tips of root and shoot and give rise to primary permanent tissue systems.  

The apical meristem, which is separated from apices due to formation of permanent tissues in between, is termed as intercalary meristem. It is intermodal in position and carries out localized growth.  

Lateral meristem is present along the sides and increases girth of the plant.
