A group of cells differentiated to carry out a similar function is called tissue .
Parenchyma help plants to float on water.
Collenchyma provides flexibility.
Simple permanent tissue is made up of same type of cells whereas complex is made up of different type of cells.

Answer 2

Hey
here is your answer

Tissues can be defined as a group of cells that are similar in structure and/or perform the same function.

Simple Permanent Tissues: The tissues made up of one type of cells, which resemble each other and perform similar functions are called Simple permanent tissues.

Complex Permanent Tissues: Cells of the complex tissues work together as a unit and have a common origin. They are made up of more than one type of cells which work in close coordination to perform a common function.

(a) Parenchyma allows plants to float.

(b) Collenchyma provides flexiblity to the plants.
