How many types of meristem tissues are present

1.	How many types of meristem tissues are present
Answer» There are three primary meristems: the protoderm, which will become the epidermis; the ground meristem, which will form the ground\xa0tissues\xa0comprising parenchyma, collenchyma, and sclerenchyma\xa0cells; and the procambium, which will become the vascular\xa0tissues\xa0(xylem and phloem).\xa0There\xa0are three\xa0types of meristematic tissues: apical (at the tips), intercalary (in the middle), and lateral (at the sides). At the\xa0meristem\xa0summit,\xa0there\xa0is a small group of slowly dividing cells, which is commonly called the central zone.
