PRESENTATION ON PLANT
TISSUE
INTRODUCTION
Different types of plant tissues are formed from
meristematic
cells.parenchyma,collenchyma,Sclerenchyma,
Vascular tissues etc., are different types of plant
tissues.
PARENCHYMA
Composed of cells with the
simplest structure.
Seen in the soft parts of the plant.
Helps in photosynthesis and the storage of food.
COLLENCHYMA
.compound of cells that are thick only at
the corners of the cell wall .
.provides flexibility and support to
the plant parts.
SCLERENCHYMA
• Composed of cells that are uniformly thick all
over the cell wall
• Provides strength and
support to plant parts
VASCULAR TISSUES
• The two types of complex tissues
found in plants are xylem and phloem
• Xylem tubes formed from
elongated cells
• Transports water and minerals absorbed by the roots
to the leaves
• Phloem composed of tubular inter connected cells
• Transports food synthesized in the leaves to various
parts of the plant body
