Plant Tissues: Types and Functions
This chart shows the types of ground tissue and their functions.
Meristems: Devoted to growth by cell multiplication.
Covering fabrics: Ensure the protection of the organs from the external environment.
Parenchyma: Represent the bulk of the organ volume, formed of poorly differentiated cells performing various functions like chlorophyll assimilation and storage of reserves.
Support tissues: Made of thick-walled cells of lignin or cellulose, giving organs a certain rigidity.
Conductive tissues: Ensure the circulation of sap to aerial organs for raw or ascending sap and to underground organs for developed or descending sap.
Endoderm and Pericycle: Surround the central cylinder.
Secretory tissues: Release various substances like nectar and latex.
