  2. Ground tissue - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ground_tissue

    This tissue system is present between the dermal tissue and forms the main bulk of the plant body. Parenchyma cells have thin primary walls and usually remain alive after they become mature. Parenchyma forms the "filler" tissue in the soft parts of plants, and is usually present in cortex, pericycle, pith, and medullary rays in primary stem and ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Plant_cell_types.svg

    All tissues except epidermis and vascular bundles form filler tissue. It contains simple tissues like parenchyma, collenchyma and sclerenchyma. In the primary stem, parenchyma cells are usually present in the cortex, pericycle, pith and medullary rad

  4. Parenchyma - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parenchyma

    Lung parenchyma showing damage due to large subpleural bullae. Parenchyma (/ p ə ˈ r ɛ ŋ k ɪ m ə /) [1] [2] is the bulk of functional substance in an animal organ or structure such as a tumour. In zoology, it is the tissue that fills the interior of flatworms. In botany, it is some layers in the cross-section of the leaf. [3]

  5. Aerenchyma - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aerenchyma

    Aerenchyma in stem cross section of a typical wetland plant. Aerenchyma or aeriferous parenchyma [1] or lacunae, is a modification of the parenchyma to form a spongy tissue that creates spaces or air channels in the leaves, stems and roots of some plants, which allows exchange of gases between the shoot and the root. [2]

  6. Cortex (botany) - Wikipedia

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

    In botany, a cortex is an outer layer of a stem or root in a vascular plant, lying below the epidermis but outside of the vascular bundles. [1] The cortex is composed mostly of large thin-walled parenchyma cells of the ground tissue system and shows little to no structural differentiation. [2]

  7. Organ (biology) - Wikipedia

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

    The main tissues that make up an organ tend to have common embryologic origins, such as arising from the same germ layer. Organs exist in most multicellular organisms. In single-celled organisms such as members of the eukaryotes, the functional analogue of an organ is known as an organelle. In plants, there are three main organs. [3]

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

  9. Tylosis (botany) - Wikipedia

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

    In woody plants, a tylosis (plural: tyloses) is a bladder-like distension of a parenchyma cell into the lumen of adjacent vessels. The term tylosis summarises the physiological process and the resulting occlusion in the xylem of woody plants as response to injury or as protection from decay in heartwood. [1]
