Zorluk: KolayGrowth, Development, and Metamorphosis

Match each type of plant meristematic tissue on the left with its correct growth function on the right.

  • Apical meristemResponsible for primary elongation at the apex of stems and roots
  • Lateral meristemFacilitates increase in girth or secondary growth in stems and roots
  • Intercalary meristemPromotes internodal elongation located at the base of leaf blades or nodes

Cevap

Apical meristem pairs with responsible for primary elongation at the apex of stems and roots; Lateral meristem pairs with facilitates increase in girth or secondary growth in stems and roots; Intercalary meristem pairs with promotes internodal elongation located at the base of leaf blades or nodes.
Apical meristems cause lengthening at shoot and root apices. Lateral meristems increase stem and root diameter. Intercalary meristems enable internodal lengthening in monocot stems.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Analyze the primary role of apical meristems in plant growth.
Apical meristems produce primary growth leading to increased length at tips.
These meristems exist at root and shoot apices where active cell division extends the plant bodies longitudinally.
2
Analyze the role of lateral meristems.
Lateral meristems produce secondary growth increasing thickness.
Located parallel to the long axis, lateral meristems add vascular and cork layers outward and inward.
3
Analyze the function of intercalary meristems.
Intercalary meristems drive internodal extension in monocots.
They remain active at leaf bases and stem nodes, allowing stems to elongate quickly.
