Apical meristem is found at the growing tips, that is root and shoot tips. These are actively dividing cells and are thus responsible for the growth of plant length-wise. Rapid division of meristematic cells can cause the plant to grow tall. There are several hormones like auxin which stimulate the multiplication of meristematic cells.
