Often found in the tip of plant root
What else can I help you with?
Where lateral meristem tissue are found?
in the bottom of the nucleolus :-D
Where is a meristem often found?
An apical meristem is of each root tip is a dividing zone that forms new cells in two directions. The meristem produces new cells in front of itself that become a loose fitting rootcap. Layers of cells in this cap are continually brushed off as the root elongates between soil particles. The cap is perpetually renewed by tiers od cells being formed and pushed down from the meristem.
How does the structure of cells near the apical meristem compare with the structure of cells far from the apical meristem?
Cells near the apical meristem are generally undifferentiated and actively dividing, while cells far from the apical meristem are often differentiated and specialized for specific functions. This means that cells near the apical meristem are smaller in size and have thin cell walls, whereas cells far from the meristem are larger and more specialized in structure and function. Additionally, the cells near the apical meristem may have fewer organelles and vacuoles compared to those far from the meristem.
What are the regions of the meristematic?
The meristematic regions in plants are the apical meristem (found at the tips of roots and shoots), intercalary meristem (located at the base of leaves or internodes), and lateral meristem (responsible for increasing the girth of stems or roots). These regions are responsible for growth and cell division in plants.
New growth at the tips of a Coleus root and shoot takes place at the?
The meristem is the location at which new growth of the shoot and the tips of a coleus root takes place. Mitosis occurs in the undifferentiated cells found in the meristem.
What are the two kinds of meristems?
The two kinds of meristems are apical meristem, located at the tips of roots and shoots, responsible for primary growth, and lateral meristem, found in the vascular cambium and cork cambium, responsible for secondary growth in plants.
What are two types of merestemetic tissues?
Two types of meristematic tissues are apical meristem, located at the tips of roots and stems, and lateral meristem, found in the lateral regions of stems and roots. These tissues are responsible for the growth and development of plants.
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.
What cells undergo multiple divisions for apical growth or the growth at the tips of stems?
Meristem cells undergo multiple divisions for apical growth at the tips of stems. These cells are found in the shoot apical meristem and root apical meristem of plants, and continuously produce new cells for growth and development.
In which region of a root do you find undifferentiated cells?
the undifferentiated cell is located in the ground meristem region.
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
Why meristem tissues are virus free?
Meristem tissues are virus free because they have a high rate of cell division and low metabolic activity, making them less susceptible to viral infections. Additionally, meristems often lack open plasmodesmata connections that viruses typically use to spread between plant cells. Lastly, meristem cultures are often treated with antiviral agents or heat therapy to eliminate any existing viruses.
