F. Long Answer Questions (5 marks each)

19. Define meristematic tissue. Describe its types with examples.

Answer:

Meristematic tissue consists of actively dividing cells. Types include:

- Apical meristem: Found at tips of roots and shoots; responsible for growth in length.
- Intercalary meristem: Present at the base of leaves or internodes; helps in longitudinal growth.

- Lateral meristem: Found in stems and roots; helps in increase in thickness.

20. What are complex permanent tissues? Explain their types and functions.

Answer:

Complex permanent tissues consist of more than one type of cell working together.

- Xylem: Transports water and minerals from roots to other parts. Components: tracheids, vessels,

xylem parenchyma, xylem fibres.

- Phloem: Transports food from leaves to other parts. Components: sieve tubes, companion cells,

phloem fibres, phloem parenchyma.
