Tissues

Question:

Why do meristematic cells lack vacuoles?

Answer:

The purpose of vacuole is to store food and waste product. Since meristems are young cells and are actively dividing, they do not participate actively in food preparation. Neither they produce large waste and hence lack vacuoles.
