Question

Permanent tissues differ from meristematic tissue in:

  1. Inability to divide.
  2. Attainment of definite shape and size.
  3. Performing a distinct function.
  4. All the above.

Answer

  1. All the above.

Explanation:

The tissues formed by meristematic tissues take up a specific role and lose the ability to divide further. As a result, they form a permanent tissue. This process of taking up a permanent shape, size, and a function is called differentiation. Cells of meristematic tissue differentiate to form different types of permanent tissue.
