In Animals,
The Parenchyma are the functional parts of an organ in the body, this is in contrast to the stroma, which refers to the structural tissue of organs, namely, the connective tissues.
In Plants,
Parenchyma cells are thin walled cells of the ground tissue that make up most of non woody structures.
The cells in the leaf constitute the mesophyll (photosynthetic parenchyma cells that lie between the upper and lower epidermis layers of a leaf) they are responsible for photosynthesis and allow for the inter change of gases.
What else can I help you with?
What plant tissue located at the tips of roots and shoots will differentiate into different plant cells?
meristematic
The tissue that carries food to all parts of the plant is?
it's called the phloem. the tissue type is meristematic tissue.
What are parenchymatous tissue in the root at primary and secondary growth?
Parenchymatous tissue in the root consists of living cells that are primarily responsible for storage, transport, and metabolic functions. During primary growth, this tissue is found in the cortex, aiding in storage and gas exchange. In secondary growth, particularly in woody plants, parenchyma contributes to the development of secondary xylem and phloem, facilitating increased storage capacity and support. Overall, parenchyma plays a crucial role in the root's overall function and adaptability throughout its growth stages.
What organs are considered parenchymatous organs?
kidneys
What types of plant cells have chloroplasts?
Place in plants where chloroplast is found is a permanent tissue called chlorenchyma which is a type of parenchymatous tissue.
What type of tissue on a plant allows it to grow?
Water nutrients good air circulation in root zone
What is meat by primary and secondary growth in vascular plants?
The primary growth in vascular plants takes place with the differentiation of vascular tissue from parenchymatous cells and the secondary growth takes place when the intra-vascular and inter vascular cambium adds to the secondary phloem and secondary xylem.
What is a parenchymatous organ?
its kind of viscera appear usually as a soft grayish red or brownish mass like liver
What tissue occupies the center of the dicot stem?
cortex- In dicot stems, the cortex is located in the area between thevascular bundles and the epidermis. In monocot stems, it occupies the area surrounding the vascularbundles. The center of the stem is pith and may function as storage.
What is the function of pith rays?
parenchymatous tissue that extends between the vascular bundles of a stem or root.Connecting the pith to the cortex by living cells so that all the vital activities are properly cordinated.
Why is xylem vessel referred to as mechanical tissue?
- Walls made from dead lignin cells, which waterproof and support walls even if water levels are low in plants. - Narrow tubes so water column doesn't break easily. - Pits in walls allow water to move from one cell to another.
Differentiate between prosenchyma pseudoparenchyma?
Prosenchyma and pseudoparenchyma are both types of plant tissue, but they differ in structure and function. Prosenchyma consists of elongated, thin-walled cells that often provide support and flexibility, typically found in stems and roots. In contrast, pseudoparenchyma refers to tissue that appears parenchymatous but is composed of tightly packed, often elongated cells, resembling parenchyma in function while lacking the typical characteristics of true parenchyma. Pseudoparenchyma is common in certain fungi and algae, serving primarily for storage and support.
