Summary Introduction
To analyze:
The functions of meristematic tissue.
Introduction:
Meristematic tissues are a set of active cells that are in a constant state of division. Meristematic cells divide and form new specialized cells. These tissues are mostly found at the apices of root and shoot. They are characterized by the following properties:
- Living and thin-walled cells
- Vacuoles are few in number and of small size in nature
- Dense protoplasm and visible nuclei cells
- Cells shapes are spherical, oval, or polygonal
- They do not store reserve food material and are in an active state of
metabolism .

MyoD is a transcriptional factor that acts specifically in muscle cells. It is hypothesized that Id proteins indirectly repress the transcription of muscle-specific proteins by inhibiting the function of MyoD. Which of the following are mechanisms by which Id proteins act as indirect repressors? (choose all that applies)
Compete with activators for access to an enhancer.
Bind the activation domain of an activator bound to an enhancer.
Bind to activators and hold them in the cytoplasm.
Form heterodimers with activators and lessen the homodimers of activators.
Please explain each answer choice please.
