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.

What is plant waethering?

Plant weathering is when seeds drop in rock/germinate the rock will expand in width.


What are the two types of meristematic tissues?

. If you were to take a cross section of the spleen, you would find that it is separated in to two distinct types of tissue. They are called red pulp and white pulp. I'll give you one guess how they got those names. Red and white pulp have different functions. Red pulp contains blood filled sinuses (a fancy name for spaces). The primary function if red pulp is to act as a mechanical filter, removing old red blood cells from general circulation. White pulp contains many B and T type lymphocytes. These cells are vital to the functioning of the immune system. Naturally, this means that the white pulp plays an important role in fighting infections within the body. The spleen is also a secondary manufacturer of red blood cells. In adults most red blood cells are made in the long bones such as your femur, but the spleen is a important producer of red blood cells in a fetus. Once the long bones are fully developed, the spleen's production of red blood cells becomes insignificant.


Define meristems and explain its role in primary and secondary stem growth?

Meristems are areas of cell division that are found at the tip of the stem and just behind the tip of the root of a plant. They provide the cells that are needed in plants to produce height. They also aid secondary stem growth by forming additional cells to increase width.


How does a plant roots grow to become wider?

Stems and buds elongate by adding material to the ends. As plants grow taller, additional material is added to the stems and branches for support, and to increase the number of channels (veins) transporting water and food. (see related link)

How do you set column width of two different cell in excel 2007 i.e from a1 to a10 with same width and from a11 to a20 different width?

You do not. Column width is consistent for all cells in column A. However, you can replicate the effect, by using multiple columns and merging cells.
