Explanation
In grasses (monocots), intercalary meristem is located at the base of the leaves (and at nodes), allowing the stem and leaves to elongate even after the tip is grazed or cut — which is why grass regrows after mowing. Apical meristems occupy root and shoot tips, and lateral meristems (cambium) occur on the sides of stems in dicots.
