Answer:

Parenchyma cells have thin primary walls and usually remain alive after they become mature. Parenchyma forms the "filler" tissue in the soft parts of plants, and is usually present in cortex, pericycle, pith, and medullary rays in primary stem and root.

Sclerenchyma cells have thick lignified secondary walls and often die when mature. Sclerenchyma provides the main structural support to a plant.[1]

Parenchyma:

(1) Cells are thin walled and unspecialised. (2) These are living cells. (3) Cells are usually loosely packed with large intercellular space. (4) Stores nutrients and water in stem and roots. (5) Some cells contain chlorophyll, called as chlorenchyma and perform photosynthesis. Other cells have large air cavities, called as aerenchyma, which provide buoyancy to the hydrophytic plants.

Sclerenchyma:

(1) Cells are thick walled and lignified. (2) Tissues are made up of dead cells. (3) No intercellular spaces between the cells are found. (4) Provides strength to the plant parts. (5) The cells are long and narrow, make the plant hard and stiff. The tissue is present in the stem around vascular bundles, in veins of leaves and hard covering of seeds and nuts
