what type of animal cell is similar to plant meristematic?
chloroplasts
meristematic cells give rise to various organs of the plant and keep the plant growing.there are two types of meristematic tissues 1) apical meristem 2) lateral meristem. the apical meristem is of two types; the shoot apical meristem (sam) gives rise to organs like the leaves and flowers, while the root apical meristem (ram) provides the meristematic cells for the future root growth. sam and ram cells divide rapidly and are considered indeterminate, in that they do not possess any defined end status. in that sense, the meristematic cells are frequently compared to the stem cells in animals, which have an analogous behavior and function. within plants sam cells play a major role in the overall growth and development, this is due to the fact that all cells making up the major parts of the plant come from the shoot apical meristem (sam). there are three different important area found within the sam and they include the central zone (cz), the peripheral zone (pz), and the rib meristem (rm). each of these areas play an important in the production of new stem cells within the sam. all sams are usually dome shaped and have structures that are layered and are described as the tunica and corpus. clv3 plays an important role in regulating the production of stem cells within the central zone (cz) region of the (sam), this is also true for the cell promoting wuschel (wus) gene. the combination of these two genes regulates stem cell production by wus negatively or positively regulating the production of stem cells by controlling the clv3 gene.;

the cells of meristematic tissues are similar in structure and have thin and elastic primary cell wall made up of cellulose. they are compactly arranged without inter-cellular spaces between them. each cell contains a dense cytoplasm and a prominent nucleus. dense protoplasm of meristematic cells contains very few vacuoles. normally the meristematic cells are oval, polygonal or rectangular in shape.





















































meristematic tissue cells have a large nucleus with small or no vacuoles, and no intercellular spaces.
