The meristematic region in the stem tip is referred to as the shoot apical meristem. Leaf primordia develop from the lateral flanks of the shoot apical meristem. They curve up during growth and the older larger primordia serve a protective function.

What is a stem apex?
The point of the root meristem is called the root apical meristem, or the apex. The apex of the root meristem is covered by the root cap, which protects and guides its growth trajectory.
What does stomata in hydrilla plant helps?
It helps it to grow. There are 3 meristem. They are: 1)Apical meristem 2)Intercalary meristem 3)Lateral meristem
How a plant meristem cell knows that it had to develop which organ?
Plant meristem cells are totipotent hence these can develop into an entire plant. Development of different plant organs depends on morphogenesis of that plant.
What will happen if apical meristem is damaged or cut?
if the apical meristem is damaged or cut the plant will not show growth.
How does the structure of cells near the apical meristem compare with the structure of cells far from the apical meristem?
Cell division takes place at the meristem, so these cells may be undifferentiated. The meristem helps the plant grow.

What meristem does the root cap originates?
The root cap originates from the apical meristem in the plant. The root cap is directly responsible for gravity perception in the plant.
How does the structure of cells near the apical meristem compare with the structure of cells far from the apical meristem?
Cell division takes place at the meristem, so these cells may be undifferentiated. The meristem helps the plant grow.
What tissue produces new plant cells?
meristem
Which meristem is responsible for the transformation of the stem of a plant into the trunk when it grows into a tree?
Lateral meristem consisting of actively dividing vascular cambium
Which part of the plant contains only unspecialised cells?
The meristem
Where is meristem often found?
Often found in the tip of plant root
What part of the plant produces cells?
The growing tip, the "apical meristem".
What is the function of 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.
