Why Do Meristematic Tissues Lack Vacuoles?

Answer: Meristematic cells are cells that divide rapidly and regularly. These cells require a substantial cytoplasm but have relatively thin cell walls. Meristematic cells have immense potential to divide. They accomplish this by having a lot of cytoplasms but relatively thin cell walls. Meristematic cells do not contain vacuoles because of this reason.

The following is a list of the qualities that meristematic tissue possesses:

• Meristems are the common name given to the cells that make up these tissues
• Meristematic tissue is capable of self-renewal due to its unique composition
• Whenever the cell divides, at least one daughter cell is a replica of the parent cell, while the other daughter cells differentiate and form specialised structures
