why is it easier to culture meristems compared to permanent tissues?

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Meristems have the capacity to divide continously their life ,, their their walls are thin and elastic to facilitate the division , hence are suitable for tissure .
permanent cells lose their ability to divide and their walls are thick . they have to differentiate to divide , hence are not easier to culture .
