Can permanent cells also show division? If yes, How?

Dear student.

Permanent cell cannot divide. Permanent tissues are composed of mature cells, which have lost their power of division. Cells in a permanent tissue attain definite shape, size, and functions. They may be dead or living. Permanent tissues are derived from meristematic tissues.

Permanent tissues are broadly classified into two major groups:

Simple permanent tissue: Similar types of cells are grouped together, which perform the same types of functions.
Complex permanent tissue: Different types of cells are grouped together for specific functions.
