The word "parenchyma" can be broken down into its Greek roots: "para," meaning "beside" or "alongside," and "enchyma," meaning "infusion" or "juice." Together, they refer to the functional tissue of an organ, as opposed to the supportive or connective tissue. In Biology, parenchyma typically describes the essential cells that make up the functional parts of plants and organs.
