Types of tissues in plants

Tissues: A group of cells which are structurally and functionlly similar are called as tissue. Types of tissues: Tissues are of two types 1.Meristematic tissue. 2.Permenant tissue. Meristematic tissue: A group of cells which are immature and involves in active cell division. These are present at the apical region of root, stem and lateral branches.    Meristematic tissue is again divided into many types based on origin, position and plane.     On the basis of origin it is divided into two types. They are:         a. Primary meristem.         b. Secondary meristem.      On the basis of position it is further divided into three types. They are:         a. Apical meristem.         b. Intercalary meristem.         c. Lateral meristem.       On the basis of plane of division it is divided into three types. They are:         a. Plate meristem.         b. Rib meristem.         c. Mass meristem. Permenant tissue: A group of cells which are matur
