1. New cells produced by the meristem initially resemble meristematic cells. As they grow and mature, their characteristics gradually change, leading to differentiation. These cells transform into specialized components of various tissues, contributing to the plant's overall structure and function.

  2. Based on their location, meristematic tissues are classified into three types: apical (found at the tips of roots and shoots), lateral (located along the sides of stems and roots), and intercalary (situated at internodes).

  3. Plant growth occurs only in specific regions because meristematic tissue, responsible for cell division and growth, is located only at these points. These regions include the tips of roots and shoots, and areas along stems and roots.

  4. Based on their dividing capacity, plant tissues can be classified into meristematic tissues, which actively divide and contribute to growth, and permanent tissues, which have differentiated and generally do not divide, maintaining the plant's structure and function.

  5. Yes, in animals, dividing regions are typically found in tissues with stem cells, like bone marrow and skin. Non-dividing regions include most mature tissues, where cells have specialized functions and generally do not undergo cell division.
