It helps it to grow. There are 3 meristem. They are: 1)Apical meristem 2)Intercalary meristem 3)Lateral meristem
Plant meristem cells are totipotent hence these can develop into an entire plant. Development of different plant organs depends on morphogenesis of that plant.
if the apical meristem is damaged or cut the plant will not show growth.
To divide by mitosis and produce new cells which will then differentiate into various new specialised tissues.
Cell division takes place at the meristem, so these cells may be undifferentiated. The meristem helps the plant grow.

if the apical meristem is damaged or cut the plant will not show growth.
The root cap originates from the apical meristem in the plant. The root cap is directly responsible for gravity perception in the plant.

meristem
Lateral meristem consisting of actively dividing vascular cambium
The meristem
Often found in the tip of plant root
The growing tip, the "apical meristem".
Apical meristem is found at the tip of the root and shoot and is made of cells that divide at a rapid pace. The apical meristem helps the plant to grow up above the soil and down into the ground. This growth is called primary growth.
