Answer:

Growth in length

Step-by-step explanation:

Meristems are regions of active cell division within a plant. In general there are two types of meristems: apical meristems and lateral meristems. Apical meristems are located at the tip of the shoot and the root, as well as at the tips of their branches. These meristems occur in all plants and are responsible for growth in length.
