Detailed explanation-1: -apical meristem, region of cells capable of division and growth in the root and shoot tips in plants. Apical meristems give rise to the primary plant body and are responsible for the extension of the roots and shoots.
Detailed explanation-2: -Apical meristems contain meristematic tissue located at the tips of stems and roots, which enable a plant to extend in length.
Detailed explanation-3: -Primary growth occurs at the apical meristem (a meristem located at the tip of a stem). A meristem is a region of undifferentiated cells from which new cells arise through cellular division.
Detailed explanation-4: -There are two types of apical meristem tissue: Shoot apical meristem (SAM) and root apical meristem (RAM).
Detailed explanation-5: -The shoot apical meristem produces the three primary meristems: procambium, ground meristem, and protoderm.
