Question

5) When exposed to light, parenchyma cells may develop chloroplasts in them, these cells are called as
a) Collenchyma
b) Aerenchyma
c) Chlorenchyma
d) Sclerenchyma​

Answer 1

ANSWER:

C) CHLORENCHYMA

Answer 2

When exposed to light, parenchyma cells may develop chloroplasts in them, these cells are called (c) chlorenchyma.

• Parenchyma, collenchyma and sclerenchyma are three types of simple tissues.
• Parenchyma and collenchyma are living and thin-walled while sclerenchyma is consist of dead cells.
• Parenchyma's main function is the storage of food material while collenchyma and sclerenchyma provide strength, hence are mechanical tissues of plants.
• Aerenchyma has air spaces that allow the exchange of gases between plant parts such as roots, stems and leaves.
• Chlorenchyma tissue has chloroplast in them which is used by plants in photosynthesis.
