Functions of Sclerenchyma ?


raghav427: Plants require cells that are bound together and have a strong outer layer known as a cell wall. Sclerenchyma cells are strong, thick cells that provide most of the support in a plant. They are known to have extremely thick cell walls and do not participate in many of the other activities of the developing plant, such as photosynthesis, because their focus is strictly on support and structure.

Sclerenchyma, in plants, support tissue composed of any of various kinds of hard woody cells. Mature sclerenchyma cells are usually dead cells that have heavily thickened secondary walls containing lignin. The cells are rigid and nonstretchable and are usually found in nongrowing regions of plant bodies, such as the bark or mature stems. Sclerenchyma is one of the three types of ground, or fundamental, tissue in plants; the other two types are parenchyma(living thin-walled tissue) and collenchyma (living support tissue with irregular walls). Sclerenchyma cells occur in many different shapes and sizes, but two main types occur: fibres and sclereids.

hey dear..❤❤.FUNCTIONS OF SCLERENCHYMA are follow -:
☆It is generally formed of dead cells.
☆In sclerenchyma lumen is narrow.
☆sclerenchyma provides stiffness and mechanical strength to the cell
☆There is no intercellular space.
☆in this, there are thickened walls due to lignin.
☆ sclerenchyma is formed of specialised cells.......hope it helps u
