Parenchyma cells retain their power of division whereas sclerenchyma cells cannot divide.
Parenchyma cell walls are thin whereas the cell walls of sclerenchyma cells are highly lignified and hence thick.

hi friend, here is your answer
Parenchyma :
- living cells and isodiametric in shape.
- cell walls are thin and made of cellulose.
- cells have distinct nucleus and a large central vacuole
- it stores food, waste products and forms packing tissue
Sclerenchyma :
- dead cells, long and narrow with tapered ends.
- cell walls are thick due to heavy deposition of lignin.
- cells do not have nucleus and cytoplasm.
- it gives rigidity and mechanical strength to the plant.
hope this helped, and pls mark as the brainliest
