Explanation:

Types of Meristematic Tissue

Primary meristematic tissue helps the plant increase in length or vertical growth, meaning it helps the plant grow up toward the sun and down into the soil. Secondary meristematic tissue helps the plant increase the girth or lateral growth of its stems, branches, and roots.

Answer:

Merietematic tissue:

A meristem is the tissue in most plants containing undifferentiated cells, found in zones of the plant where growth can take place. Meristematic cells give rise to various organs of a plant and are responsible for growth. Differentiated plant cells generally cannot divide or produce cells of a different type.

The meristematic tissue is an area of active plant growth. Undifferentiated cells divide and form new, specialized cells. Meristematic tissue may be the cambium layer, leaf or flower buds, shoot tips, or root tips.

Types of Meristematic tissue:

There are three types of meristematic tissues: apical (at the tips), intercalary (in the middle) and lateral (at the sides).
