Question

Assertion: The supportive tissues in plants generally have dead cells.
Reasoning: Plants are stationary so, dead cells present in plants help them to
remain upright and provide mechanical strength.​

Answer 1

Dead cells are exceptions among bryophytes but are very common in flowering plants .They are usually elongated.

Mature sclerenchyma cells are usually dead cells that hve heavily thickened sclerenchyma provides additional support and strength to the plant body

Plant do not move so their tissues are predominantly provide support to them so dead cell can also provide mechanical strength to the plants
