Question

write the characteristics of tissue and how many kinds of tissue found in plants ​

Answer 1

Explanation:

1. The three types of plant cells are found in each of the major types of plant tissues: dermal, ground, and vascular tissues.
2. Dermal tissue covers the outside of a plant in a single layer of cells called the epidermis. ...
3. Ground tissue makes up most of the interior of a plant.

Tissue Definition

Tissues are groups of cells that have a similar structure and act together to perform a specific function. The word tissue comes from a form of an old French verb meaning “to weave”. There are four different types of tissues in animals: connective, muscle, nervous, and epithelial. In plants, tissues are divided into three types: vascular, ground, and epidermal. Groups of tissues make up organs in the body such as the brain and heart.

Types of Plant tissues (3 types)

Vascular

Vascular tissues in plants transport substances throughout the different parts of the plant. The two types of vascular tissue are xylem and phloem. Xylem transports water and some soluble nutrients, while phloem transports organic compounds the plant uses as food, particularly sucrose. Vascular tissues are long and thin, and form cylinders that nutrients are transported through like pipes. Vascular tissue is also involved with two types of meristems, which are tissues that contain undifferentiated cells that are used during a plant’s growth. The meristems accompanying vascular tissue are the cork cambium and the vascular cambium. These meristems are associated with the growth of the plant’s vascular tissues.

Ground

Ground tissue is made up of all cells that are not vascular or dermal (having to do with the epidermis; see below). There are three types of ground tissue: parenchyma, collenchyma, and sclerenchyma. Parenchyma cells form the “filler” tissue in plants, and perform many functions like photosynthesis, storage of starch, fats, oils, proteins, and water, and repairing damaged tissue. Collenchyma tissue is made up of long cells with irregularly thick walls that provide structural support to the plant. Plants that grow in windy areas have thicker walls of collenchyma tissue. Sclerenchyma is also supporting tissue, but it is made of dead cells. There are two types of sclerenchyma: fibers and sclereids. Fibers are long, slender cells, while sclereids are star-shaped with thick cell walls. Sclerenchyma fibers make up fabrics such as hemp and flax.

Epidermal

The epidermis is made up of a single layer of cells that covers a plant’s roots, stems, leaves, and flowers. (Epidermis is also the word for skin in human anatomy.) It guards the plant against water loss, regulates the exchange of carbon dioxide and oxygen, and in roots, it absorbs water and nutrients from the soil. The epidermis on a plant’s stems and leaves have pores called stomata, which carbon dioxide, water vapor, and oxygen diffuse through. Epidermal cells are themselves covered by the plant cuticle, which contains mainly cutin, a waxy substance that protects against water loss. Plants in deserts and other arid regions often have thick cuticles to help conserve water.
