Question

What is the main function of different meristematic tissues

present in plants?(AS1)​

Answer 1

Answer:

Meristematic cells are also responsible for keeping the plant growing. The Shoot Apical Meristem (SAM) gives rise to organs like the leaves and flowers, while the Root Apical Meristem (RAM) provides the meristematic cells for the future root growth.

Answer 2

The cells have no intercellular space. The zone where these cells exist is known as meristem. The cells of the meristematic tissue divide actively to form specialized structures such as buds of leaves and flowers, tips of roots and shoots, etc. These cells help to increase the length and girth of the plant.
