\nOption D correctly describes the features of cells found in meristematic tissues.
\n<\/section>\n
\nMeristematic tissue consists of actively dividing cells responsible for growth in plants. These cells are characterized by dense cytoplasm, thin cellulose cell walls, and prominent nuclei, which are features necessary for high metabolic activity and rapid cell division.
\n<\/section>\n
\nMeristematic tissues are typically located at growing points, such as the tips of roots and shoots (apical meristems), or in layers responsible for increasing diameter (lateral meristems like cambium). The thin cell walls allow for easy expansion during growth, and the dense cytoplasm and prominent nucleus indicate a cell that is metabolically active and preparing for or undergoing division. Vacuoles are typically small or absent in meristematic cells.
