Answer:

because they are made of actively dividing cells which do not need food to be stored. so, Meristematic tissue do not have vacuole.

Answer 2

Meristematic tissues do not have vacuole because the functioning of them does not require a vacuole.

Explanation:

• The meristematic cells in a plant are involved in actively dividing and developing into specialized cells.

• The function of a vacuole is to store food and provide turgidity to a cell.

• The vacuole are also involved in storing food.

• As the meristematic cells are actively dividing cells, they do not require food to be stored in them.

• These cells also do not require turgidity to be present.

• Hence, meristematic cells do not have a vacuole.
