  2. Ground tissue - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ground_tissue

    Annular collenchyma (uniformly thickened cell walls) Lacunar collenchyma (collenchyma with intercellular spaces) Collenchyma cells are most often found adjacent to outer growing tissues such as the vascular cambium and are known for increasing structural support and integrity. The first use of "collenchyma" (/ k ə ˈ l ɛ ŋ k ɪ m ə, k ɒ ...

  3. Cortex (botany) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cortex_(botany)

    Some of the outer cortical cells may contain chloroplasts, giving them a green color. They can therefore produce simple carbohydrates through photosynthesis. [4] In woody plants, the cortex is located between the periderm (bark) and the vascular tissue (phloem, in particular). It is responsible for the transportation of materials into the ...

  4. Plant cell - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plant_cell

    Structure of a plant cell. Plant cells are the cells present in green plants, photosynthetic eukaryotes of the kingdom Plantae.Their distinctive features include primary cell walls containing cellulose, hemicelluloses and pectin, the presence of plastids with the capability to perform photosynthesis and store starch, a large vacuole that regulates turgor pressure, the absence of flagella or ...

The original quote on the image was "the image describes the parts on a typical plant cell. the image i made myself as resources i used the simple structure here, also the one i found hereand must of the text i could get from here

  6. Tissue (biology) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tissue_(biology)

    Cross section of collenchyma cells. Collenchyma (Greek, 'Colla' means gum and 'enchyma' means infusion) is a living tissue of primary body like Parenchyma. Cells are thin-walled but possess thickening of cellulose, water and pectin substances (pectocellulose) at the corners where a number of cells join. This tissue gives tensile strength to the ...

  7. Sclereid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sclereid

    Although sclereids are variable in shape, the cells are generally isodiametric, prosenchymatic, forked, or elaborately branched. They can be grouped into bundles, can form complete tubes located at the periphery, or can occur as single cells or small groups of cells within parenchyma tissues. An isolated sclereid cell is known as an idioblast.

    Setting a value for any of the cell or organelle attributes will make its diagram visible Any number and combination of diagram attributes may be set When multiple diagrams are activated, the title is suppressed

  9. Secondary cell wall - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Secondary_cell_wall

    The cell starts producing the secondary cell wall after the primary cell wall is complete and the cell has stopped expanding. [1] It is most prevalent in the Ground tissue found in vascular plants, with Collenchyma having little to no lignin, and Sclerenchyma having lignified secondary cells walls. [2] [3]
