Meristematic Tissue
They are also called dividing or growing tissues. Cell of these tissue have the potential to divide continuously. Thus they help in increasing the height and girth of the plant. The growth in all multicellular plants are restricted in some regions called Meristem which are made of these tissues.

Apical Meristem
The apical meristematic tissue is a tissue found in the plant which is responsible for plant growth and found in the root tips as well as the tips of new shoots and leaves. One of three types of meristems, or tissue that can divide into various cell types, is the apical meristem. In plants, the meristem is the tissue where development takes place. Apical growth refers to growth that occurs at the plant's top and bottom tips. Apical meristems give rise to the primary plant body and are in charge of root and shoot extension. Tissue present in shoots are known as ''Shoot apical Meristem. Tissue present in roots are known as root apical Meristem.
