Question

What is the location of Permanent tissue and Meristematic Tissue in plant body.

Answer 1

Dear student,

Meristamatic tissues are found in zones of the plant where growth can take place.
It includes : 1.Apical meristem(at root and shoot tips)
2.Lateral meristem - includes Vascular meristem(secondary tissues like xylem and phloem) and cork cambium (beyond the phloem area)
3.Intercalary meristem(nodes or leaf attachment).

Permanent tissues :

Type	Subtype	Found in
Simple permanent tissue	Parenchyma	epidermis, cortex, pericycle, pith, xylem
	Collenchyma	below the epidermis(some contains chloroplast)
	Sclerenchyma	dead cells
Complex permanent tissue	Xylem	Water conducting tissue. Contains both living and nonliving cells
	Phloem	Food translocation tissue.Contains both living and nonliving cells.
Secretory or specialised tissue	Glandular	Glandular cells on outer cells of the plant. They secrete resin, oil, mucilage, tannin, gums.
	Lacticiferous	Latex cells as found in madar and Latex vessels as found in rubber, papaya etc
