Sclerenchyma, xylem and phloem
Sclerenchyma fibres
Function: to provide support, NOT involved in transport
-
Xylem vessels
-
Xylem vessels are long, tube-like structures formed from dead cells joined end to end
-
-
-
Water and mineral ions move into and out of the vessels through the pits in the walls where there's no lignin
-
Phloem tissue
Transport organic solutes (mainly sugars) from where they're made to where they're needed- translocation NOT involved in support
