What is Permanent Tissues, Types, and Functions?
Permanent Tissues
Permanent tissues are those tissue which has lost the power of cell division. Cells of ‘permanent tissues’ are matured, assume a definite shape, size and function. On the basis of constituents call, permanent tissues are classified into three types: simple, complex and secretory or special tissues. Permanent tissues are of two types:
Simple tissues and Complex tissues
(i) Simple tissues: This type of tissue is composed of the same type of cells.
These are again of four types:
These are again of four types:
(a) Parenchyma simple tissues: Cells of parenchyma tissues are live. They are oval, elongated and loosely packed with large inter-cellular space, forming basic packing of tissue and are found throughout the plant body.
Functions of parenchyma:
They provide mechanical support to the plant body.
They store food and nutrients in vacuoles.
Chlorenchyma: Parenchyma with chlorophyll which performs photosynthesis is called as chlorenchyma.
Aerenchyma: In aquatic plants, cells of parenchyma have large air cavities to give buoyancy to the plant and is called aerenchyma.
