structure , function, location of parenchyma, collenchyma,
sclerenchyma, xylm and phylomen tissue ???????

Kunal Sharma · Accepted Answer

Parenchyma
The structure of these cells is roughly spherical, through some
may be elongated
The main function of parenchyma is to act as a packing tissue,
it provides support in herbaceous plants
These cells are metabolically active and are the sites for many
of the vital activity of the plant body
The air spaces between the cells of these tissue allow gaseous
exchange to take place between the living cell and the
environment
Parenchyma is distributed in Cortex, pith, medullary rays in
wood and as packing tissue in xylem and phloem
Collenchyma
The structure of collenchyma is similar to parenchyma but it is
characterized by the deposition of extra cellulose at the corners
of the cells
Collenchyma is a mechanical tissue, its main function is to
provide support to those organs where it is found
It is found in the outer regions of cortex (stems, petioles)
Sclerenchyma
The structure of these cells are roughly spherical, although it
may vary considerably in size and shape, the primary cell wall is
thickened with the deposits of lignin
Their main function is to provide mechanical support and are
most commonly found in the cortex, pith phloem, fruits and
seeds
