a Parenchyma bsderenchyma conllenchim​

Answer 1

Answer:

parenchyma tissue is responsible for the storage of nutrition

Answer 2

Parenchyma retain its capacity of division throughout their life.

Option (a)

Explanation:

• Tissues are defined as cells which are similar in origin and structure and also performs similar functions.
• In plant cell, generally two types of tissues are found, Meristematic tissue which divides throughout their life, and Permanent tissues which were meristematic in nature (capable of cell division) but when it loses its ability to divide it becomes permanent tissues.
• Parenchyma, Sclerenchyma, and Collenchyma all are the different types of Permanent tissues which has lost their ability to divide.
• Out of these, parenchyma is living, but sclerenchyma and collenchyma are dead cells.
• Since parenchyma are living, they can regain their ability for cell division if are stimulated, but sclerenchyma and collenchyma could not divide.
• So, out of all the options given only parenchyma can regain it's ability of cell division.
