Answer:
Answer:
In plants, there is:
1. Parenchyma
2. Collenchyma
3. Sclerenchyma
Parenchyma: Consist of live unspecialized cells having thin cell wall. They are loosely packed and have large intercellular space (space between the cells). Provides support to the plant and present in all parts like roots, stems, leaves, fruits and seeds.
Collenchyma: The cells of the tissue are living, elongated, and have irregularly thickened corners. The term was coined by Schleiden. It provides flexibility and mechanical support to the plants. They have a little intercellular space.
Sclerenchyma: Sclerenchyma is found in the covering of seeds and nuts, around the vascular tissues in stems and the veins of leaves. Sclerenchyma provides strength to the plant. The main function of sclerenchyma is to provide mechanical support and protection to the plant.
