Sclerenchyma tissue fibres can be utilised as a raw material in the production of textiles and other woven goods.

Explanation:

  • Dead cells make up the majority of sclerenchyma tissues. They have a thicker outer wall. The lignin composition and high cellulose content (60 to 80 percent). It also helps plants to maintain their structural integrity.
  • They mostly feature two types of walls: primary and secondary. Sclerenchyma tissues can be found mostly in the cortex of stems and leaves.
  • They aid in the growth of a plant. Plant fibres may be found practically everywhere. These might take the form of vascular strands or bundles.
