• Sclerenchyma tissue has cells that have very thick lignified cell walls and are dead at maturity.
• The primary functions of sclerenchyma are support and protection.
• Some sclerenchyma cells are elongated, while other types are cubical or highly branched.
• Elongated sclerenchyma cells are called fibres and provide strength and support to plant parts. Plants fibres have been used extensively by people to make twine, rope and cloth.
•Collenchyma tissues are mainly found under the epidermis in stems in the large veins of leaves.
• The cells are composed of living, elongated cells running parallel to the length of organs that it is found in (up the side of the stem)
• Collenchyma cells have thick cellulose cell walls which are thickened at the corners.
• Intercellular air spaces are absent or very small.
• The cells contain living protoplasm (cytoplasm and nucleus) and they sometimes contain chloroplasts.
•Cells in parenchyma tissue are thin walled and are often block-shaped.
•Parenchyma cells remain alive at maturity and are abundant in roots, stems, leaves and fruit.
•The primary functions of parenchyma tissue are photosynthesis in leaves and storage of food as starch granules.
•You would expect such tissues to have many chloroplasts and/or amyloplasts

Are the kinds of fundamental tissues?
sclerenchyma, collenchyma, parenchyma
What are three types of ground tissue?
Parenchyma, Sclerenchyma, Collenchyma.
What are the different cells of a plant?
The three different cells of a plant are parenchyma, sclerenchyma, and collenchyma.
What includes parenchyma collenchyma and sclerenchyma?
These are types of plant tissues responsible for support and structure. Parenchyma tissue functions in photosynthesis and storage. Collenchyma tissue provides flexible support to growing plant parts. Sclerenchyma tissue offers rigid structural support through thickened cell walls.
What are the name of similar cells that work together to do one job?
Tissues like parenchyma, sclerenchyma, collenchyma etc.
What are the tissues of plant?
There are four types of plant tissue. Vascular tissue , which is xylem and phloem, and epidermal tissue which is comprised of parenchyma cells. The ground tissue is a combination of parenchyma, collenchyma, and sclerenchyma cells. And the meristematic tissue is made of parenchyma cells.
Why are tissues present in plants?
Many types of tissues are present in plants such as - Parenchyma, sclerenchyma, chlorenchyma, collenchyma, aerenchyma and complex tissues like xylem and phloem to perform specialized functions. Such as chlorenchya in photosynthesis, sclerenchyma and collenchyma to provide strength and regidity, parenchyma for storage and xylem and phloem for conduction etc.
3 simple tissues and their location in plants?
Parenchyma Sclerenchyma,Collenchyma. Present on permanent tissues where cessation of growth has occurred.
What are examples of ground tissue?
Examples of ground tissue in plants include parenchyma, collenchyma, and sclerenchyma cells. Parenchyma cells are the most common and versatile, responsible for storage, photosynthesis, and support. Collenchyma cells provide flexible support for growing plant parts, while sclerenchyma cells provide rigid, structural support.
Does every plant cell have a mitochondrion?
There are 3 types of plant cells in a plant, parenchyma cells, collonchyma cells, and sclerenchyma cells (dont hold me to the spelling). parenchyma cells exist typically in the leaves and the phloem (the pipe that transfers materials skyward in the plant) and require energy for various thing and so they require energy other than sugar so they have mitochondria collonchyma and sclerenchyma cells are mostly structural cells, however collonchyma is more representative of the parenchyma cells, so I would assume that the collonchyma cells would have fewer mitohcondria than the parenchyma and the sclerenchyma cells could have no mitochondria whatsoever ummm, dude, this is a yes or no question. i say yes.
