Q: Which of the following statements is incorrect about Meristematic tissues?
-
A
Meristematic tissues are quite small which allows large number of cell division
-
B
Their cytoplasm is quite dense which means that they contain many cell organelles that help them increase their rate of respiration
-
C
Their cell wall is thin which allows them to divide easily
-
D
Larger vacuoles let them break easily and give mechanical support
D
Answer:
D
Explanation:
Meristematic tissues are quite small which allows large number of cell division. Their cytoplasm is quite dense which means that they contain many cell organelles that help them increase their rate of respiration. Their cell wall is thin which allows them to divide easily. However, vacuoles are absent in Meristematic tissues as they interfere with cell division and differentiation. They also provide little to no mechanical support.
