The basic differences between meristematic and permanent tissues of plants are tabulated below
(b) Cells derived from the division of meristematic tissues take up specific roles and gracually lose their ability to divide. Thus, they form permanent tissue. The process y wch the cells divide meristematically to take a permanent shape, size and tunction is called differentiation.
(c) Two simple permanent tissue in plants are parenchyma and collenchyma while two complex permanent tissue in plants are xylem and phloem.
