plant cells

Plant tissues

Plant cells with similar structure and functions form

Vascular

Epidermal

Ground

Several forms of plant tissues

Different types of cells, functions and places

Each type of tissue consists of

Meristematic tissue

Permanent tissue

Two main types

Actively dividing

Meristematic tissue

Apical meristem

Intercalary meristem

Lateral meristem

Found at the meristems of plants

Apical meristem

Located at the growing point

increase its length

Intercalary meristem

Growth in length

Middle position

Lateral meristem

Growth in thickness

Width of roots snd stems

Cambium

Lateral meristem is also called

Cork cambium

Outer bark of a woody plant

Vascular cambium

Make Xylem and phloem tissue

Permanent tissue

Do not divide constantly

Epidermal tissue

Vascular tissue

Ground tissue

Groups of permanent tissue

epidermal tissue

Outermost layer of cells

Guard cells

Open and close the stoma

Hair cells

Maximize the uptake of water and nutrients

Vascular tissue

Transport and supports

Xylem tissue

Transport water and mineral salts

Phloem tissue

Transport food

Ground tissue

Forms the body of the plant

Parenchyma

Fleshy tissues of fruits and vegetables

Collenchyma

Function to store food

Sclerenchyma

Function mainly for support
