Level 1: 80%+
Hints

The apical meristems in the plants:

1. occur at the tips of both roots and shoots and produce primary tissues
2. occur at the tip of root and base of the stem and produce secondary tissues
3. occur at the base of root and tip of the stem and produce primary tissues
4. occur at the tips of both roots and shoots and produce secondary tissues
