Cells of meristematci tissue lack ____.

Vacuoles

The correct answer is Option (2) – Vacuoles

The correct answer is:Vacuoles

Meristematic tissues consist of actively dividing cells responsible for growth and development in plants. These cells are characterized by their high metabolic activity and lack certain specialized structures found in mature plant cells. One such structure that meristematic cells lack is vacuoles. Vacuoles are membrane-bound organelles found in mature plant cells that serve various functions, including storage, waste management, and structural support. However, meristematic cells primarily focus on cell division and growth, and they have minimal need for large vacuoles until they differentiate into specialized cell types. Therefore, meristematic cells typically lack well-developed vacuoles compared to mature plant cells.
