Question 2
Which pair of statements correctly distinguishes meristematic tissue from permanent tissue?
The right answer is the one marked above.
Meristematic cells still divide and are undifferentiated; permanent cells have stopped dividing and are specialised. That is the division the whole plant classification rests on.
Two other differences you could give: meristematic cells have no large vacuole while many permanent cells do, and meristematic tissue has no intercellular spaces while parenchyma does.
