The given question presents two statements and we are asked to determine their correctness.

Statement I states that complex tissue is made up of more than one type of cells. This statement is correct as complex tissues are composed of different types of cells, each performing specific functions. Complex tissues can be found in plants, such as xylem and phloem, where different types of cells work together to transport water, nutrients, and sugars.

Statement II states that meristems are examples of permanent tissue. This statement is incorrect. Meristems are not examples of permanent tissue but rather of the fundamental tissue known as simple tissue. Meristematic tissues are responsible for growth and cell division in plants. They are located at the tips of shoots and roots and allow plants to develop new organs and increase in size.

Therefore, the correct answer is option 1: Statement I is correct, but Statement II is incorrect.
