the cells of meristematic area are smaller.
Differentiation
Perpetually young tissues where cells retain the ability to divide are meristematic. Meristematic tissues are cells or group of cells that have the ability to divide.
meristematic
Meristematic tissues are cells or group of cells that have the ability to divide. These tissues in a plant comprise small, densely packed cells that can keep dividing to form new cells. Meristems have the following characteristics:The cells are small,The cells walls are thin,Cells have large nuclei,Vacuoles are absent or very smallThere are no intercellular spaces
Meristematic. "A meristem is a tissue in all plants consisting of undifferentiated cells (meristematic cells) and found in zones of the plant where growth can take place." - Wiki entry on Meristem. The are not undifferentiated. This is what the question means by 'perpetually young'.
Cells in and around the meristems are the only ones that divide. Once the cell has been pushed past the meristematic zone, it stops dividing. Meristematic cells are also undifferentiated, they have not yet developed specializations such as vascular or dermal tissue.

Only undifferentiated cells are found in meristematic tissue

for plants its meristematic/ meristem cells
meristematic cells
Meristematic region produces cells in a plant.
meristematic cells
Yes, meristematic cells are the cells responsible for both the length and the width of a plant body. The ones responsible for the width alone are the lateral meristems.
Plant tissue systems fall into one of two general types: meristematic tissue and permanent (or non-meristematic) tissue. Cells of the meristematic tissue are found in meristems, which are plant regions of continuous cell division and growth.
