Merismatic Sentence Examples

By the multiplication of the protoplasts in these merismatic areas the substance of the plant is increased.

As new cells are continually formed in the merismatic mass those which are farthest from the apex gradually cease to divide and a different process of growth takes place in them, which is associated more particularly with the formation of the vacuoles, consequent upon the establishment of coniiderable hydrostatic pressure in them, thus causing the bulk of the cells to be greatly enlarged.
