Root apical meristem
root cap secretes a polysaccharide slime that lubricates the soil around the tip of the root
#Id: 10666
Growth occurs just behind the tip in three overlapping zones of cells at successive stages of primary growth. These are the zones of cell division, elongation, and differentiation
#Id: 10667
Intercalary meristem
meristem which occurs between mature tissues is known as intercalary meristem
#Id: 10668
They occur in grasses and regenerate parts removed by the grazing herbivores
#Id: 10669
Lateral meristem
Present on lateral side and increases thickness, girth and diameter
#Id: 10670
They are cylindrical meristems
Examples of lateral meristems- vascular cambium and cork-cambium
