Plant Cells & Tissues
Collenchyma Cells
-
-
-
Have unevenly thickened cell walls, which allow the cells to stretch and be flexible.
-
-
Parenchyma Cells
Most flexible, thin-walled cells.
-
Can undergo cell division when mature, allowing them to repair damaged parts of plants.
Basis of many plant structures and functions, including:
-
-
-
-
Sclerenchyma Cells
When they mature, they lack cytoplasm and other living components, but leaving their thick, rigid cell walls.
-
-
-
Sclereids are also called stone cells, short and irregularly shaped
Fibers are needle shaped, when stacked together they form a tough elastic tissue
Plant Tissues
-
-
-
Meristematic tissue
-
Intercalary meristem cells: found in monocot stems only, produces new cells that result in an increase in stem or leaf length.
Apical meristem cells: tissues at the tips of roots and stems, responsible for primary growth.
