OpenStudy (trancenova):

Hmmm do you mean what's the difference between primary meristem and primary tissue? Or am I just getting confused with something...

OpenStudy (anonymous):

no i mean primary meristem and permanent meristem i just only know dat permanent meristem is formed by the differentiation of primary meristem.. need help in distinguishing dem..

OpenStudy (trancenova):

humm herrm.... perhaps we call it something different over here but the primary meristem differentiates into the Protoderm, Procambium or the Ground meristem. Wiki definition: Protoderm - lies around the outside of the stem and develops into the epidermis. Procambium - lies just inside of the protoderm and develops into primary xylem and primary phloem. It also produces the vascular cambium, a secondary meristem. Ground meristem develops into the Cortex and the pith. It produces the cork cambium, another secondary meristem.
