Meristematic tissue has a number of defining features, including small cells, thin cell walls, large cell nuclei, absent or small vacuoles, and no intercellular spaces. The apical meristem (the growing tip) functions to trigger the growth of new cells in young seedlings at the tips of roots and shoots and forming buds.

Explanation:

The undifferentiated cells capable of dividing actively are known as meristematic cells.

The characteristics of meristematic cells are:-

1) The cells are isodiametric with thin cellulosic cell walls with no secondary cell wall.

2) They divide rapidly hence, there is no stored food in these cells.

3) They are compactly arranged cells with no intercellular spaces.

4) They have a dense cytoplasm with a prominent nucleus.

5) Endoplasmic reticulum and mitochondria are not fully developed in these cells.

6) They are the most metabolically active cells and are undifferentiated cells.
