Text SolutionText solutionverified iconVerified

With the increase in substrate concentration, the velocity of the enzymatic reactions rises at first. The reaction ultimately reaches a maximum velocity which is not exceeded by any further rise in concentration of the substrate. This is because the enzyme molecules are fewer than the substrate molecules and after saturation of these molecules there are no free enzyme molecules to bind with the additional substrate molecules.

Primordial meristem or promeristem is also called as embryonic meristem. Usually occupying very minute area at the tip of root and shoot. Primary meristem originates from the primordial meristem and occurs in the plant body from the beginning, at the root and shoot apices. Cells are dividing and different permanent tissues are produced from primary meristems. Secondary meristematic tissues develop from living permanent tissues during later stages of plant growth; hence are called as secondary meristems. This tissue occurs in the mature regions of root and shoot of many plants. Secondary meristem is always lateral (to the central axis) in position e.g. fascicular cambium, inter fascicular cambium, cork
