Answer» Plant tissues in which cells keep on dividing are called meristematic tissue. Meristematic tissues are present in those parts of plants which keep on growing. Meristematic tissues are classified on the basis of their location. They are of following types:\tApical Meristem: Apical meristem is present on root apex, stem apex, leaf buds and flower buds. They are responsible for growth in length, i.e. primary growth.\tLateral Meristem: Lateral meristem is present along the side of the stem. They are responsible for growth in girth, i.e. secondary growth.\tIntercalary Meristem: Intercalary meristem is present at the base of leaf or internodes. They are present on either side of the node. The tissue which is responsible for the growth of plants only in certain specific regions,is known as meristmatic tissue or meristem. |
