Parenchyma
Parenchyma is the type of plant cell we see in biology books. Cells in parenchyma are thin-walled and unspecialized, so they can be used for multiple purposes in the plant. They make up the inner layer of leaves called the mesophyll. These cells are photosynthetic, meaning they are the cells in the plant that make food from sunlight. Parenchyma cells are also used for the innermost parts and outer covering of roots and stems and make up the soft tissue of fruits.
Collenchyma
If you take another look at the plants surrounding you, you can see that they stand straight up. How does that happen? They don't have bones like a human, but they do have a simple tissue called collenchyma that keeps them erect. These cells are elongated and have cell walls that are much thicker than other types of plant cells. Although the thick walls help to hold up the plant, their cell walls are still flexible, allowing them to bend.
Sclerenchyma
When you think of a mature plant, you might think of a tall tree. You probably assume all the cells are alive and healthy in this adult plant. However, some types of tissue actually die before they become mature and do their job. Sclerenchyma is one such tissue. When these cells die, their thick cell walls become inflexible, giving the plant some serious structure. Since their cell walls don't move, they're only found in parts of the plant that are done growing.
