How does meristematic tissue differ from permanent tissue

Q- How does meristematic tissue differed from permanent tissue?

Answer- Meristematic tissue:

1. The cells present in meristematic tissue did cell division throughout the life.

2. The meristematic tissue helps in growth of the plant as the cells present in meristematic tissue did cell division throughout the life..

3. Meristematic tissue are living in nature.

4. Meristematic tissue are oval, rounded and polygonal shaped.

5. The cells in meristematic tissue have thin cell wall.

6. The cell wall present in cells of Meristematic tissue is formed of cellulose.

7. The cytoplasm of Meristematic tissue is non-vaculated.

8. Intercellular space is absent in cells of meristematic tissue.

Permanent tissue:

1. The cells present in Permanent tissue did not do cell division throughout the life.

2. The Permanent tissue do not help in growth of the plant as the cells present in permanent tissue did not do cell division throughout the life..

3. Permanent tissue are either living or dead in nature.

4. Permanent tissue are oval, rounded shaped and fibre like structure.

5. The cells in Permanent tissue have thick cell wall.

6. The cell wall present in cells of Permanent tissue is formed of lignin.

7. The cytoplasm of Permanent tissue is vaculated.

8. Intercellular space is present in cells of Permanent tissue.
