Apical meristems :-

Apical meristems are present at the apices(tips) of roots and shoots.

They are concerned with the extension of plant length. They cause increase in plant length, so, they play important role in primary growth..

Lateral meristems :-

Lateral meristems are the meristems present in roots, stems and branches.

In transverse section, there position is away from centre.

Examples :-

Vascular and Cork cambium

Functions :-

Concerned with secondary growth.

Intercalary meristems :-

These are the parts of apical meristems separated by sheet of permanent cells.

These are situated at base of internodes in most plants.

These meristems are responsible for production of new leaves and flowers 💐...

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.


What does stomata in hydrilla plant helps?

Stomata in hydrilla plants help in regulating gas exchange, allowing for the uptake of carbon dioxide needed for photosynthesis and the release of oxygen generated as a byproduct. They also help in controlling water loss through transpiration by opening and closing to regulate the passage of gases.
