Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Meristems are the tissues responsible for lengthening and thickening in plants. They are located at the tips of shoot and root growth and constantly produce new cells through mitosis, which differentiate into various plant tissues. The protoderm is responsible for the epidermis or outer layer of the plant. Procambium is responsible for the vascular tissue. The terminal bud is the bud located at the end of the plant stem where growth occurs. An immature leaf is not involved in the growth of the plant tissue.
