A PRESENTATION BY DHANESWAR.S IX AVJC 1

2. TISSUES
• A group of cells which are similar in Origin, Structure And Functions are
called tissues.
• Tissues are classified as
• Meristematic Tissues and
• Permanent Tissues in plants.
A PRESENTATION BY DHANESWAR.S IX AVJC 2

3. MERISTEMATIC TISSUES
• The meristematic tissues are immature and divide actively.
• The term meristem was coined by K.Nageli[1858].
• They help in the Production Of New Cells and thus Promote The
Growth Of The Plant.
• They are found in Only High Vascular Plants and help in the production
of various organs.

2. Cells are arranged compactly without intercellular spaces.
3. Cell walls are thin and cellulosic.
4. Cytoplasm is dense and abundant . It shows a big conspicuous nucleus.
