State

Meristematic cells differentiate into three permanent tissue types: dermal tissue for covering, vascular tissue for transport, and ground tissue for photosynthesis and support.

A stem's outer epidermis is dermal tissue; its xylem and phloem are vascular tissue; its pith and cortex are ground tissue.

Watch for

All three types trace to one meristematic origin — the distinction lies in function, not lineage.
