Summary Introduction
To analyze:
The type of roots in which the root apical meristems are found.
Introduction:
Meristematic tissue is found in plant structures and contains undifferentiated cells. These cells are the building blocks of plants. This tissue contains cells of various sizes and shapes. Meristematic cells contain a large nucleus and lack vacuole.
