At which region of plants are meristematic tissues are present ?

Meristematic tissues are present at the growing regions of plants, such as the tips of roots and shoots, as well as in the cambium layer of stems and roots. These tissues are responsible for cell division and growth in plants.

Meristematic tissues are found in four regions of plants:

1. Apical Meristems
- Located at the tips of roots and shoots
- Responsible for primary growth (lengthwise growth)

2. Lateral Meristems
- Include cambium and cork cambium
- Responsible for secondary growth (thickness growth)

3. Intercalary Meristems
- Found at the base of leaf sheaths or internodes
- Allow for continued growth in certain regions without affecting overall length

4. Floral Meristems
- Located at the tips of floral buds
- Responsible for the development of flowers and their reproductive structures
