The meristematic tissue is of the following types:
Apical Meristem

- Various cell divisions facilitate the growth of the cells in the roots and shoots and help in cellular enlargement.
- Apical meristem is divided into-promeristem zone, which contains actively dividing cells, and the meristematic zone, which contains protoderm, procambium, and ground meristem.
Intercalary Meristem
- It is located in the leaves and internodes at the intercalary position.
- These help to increase the length of the internode.
- It is found in grass, monocots, and pines.
- It is a part of apical meristem and adds to the height of the plant.
Lateral Meristem
- It is located in the stems and roots on the lateral side.

- Vascular cambium and cork cambium are the two lateral meristems.
- These divide preclinically or radially and give rise to secondary permanent tissues.
