Question

Difference between latex cells and latex vessal in colum

Answer 1

Latex cells

1. They are known as non-articulated latex ducts.

2. They are independent units and simple cells.

3. These originate as minute structure, quickly elongate and ramify by repeated branching.

Latex vessels

1. They are brown as articulated latex ducts.

2. They are formed by the fusion of several cells.

These originate in meristems from rows of cells and grow parallel.

Answer 2

Latex cells : A laticiferous cell is a highly branched cell with long slender processes ramifying in all directions in the ground tissue of the organ. They do not fuse and do not form network. (ii) Latex vessels : They are formed due to fusion of cells and form network like structure in all directions.
