    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mesenchyme

    Mesenchyme (/ ˈ m ɛ s ə n k aɪ m ˈ m iː z ən-/ [1]) is a type of loosely organized animal embryonic connective tissue of undifferentiated cells that give rise to most tissues, such as skin, blood or bone.

  3. Panchanan Maheshwari - Wikipedia

    Panchanan Maheswari, FRS (9 November 1904 – 18 May 1966 [1] in Jaipur Rajasthan) a prominent Indian botanist noted chiefly for his invention of the technique of test-tube fertilization of angiosperms. This invention has allowed the creation of new hybrid plants that could not previously be crossbred naturally.

  4. Connective tissue - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Connective_tissue

    Special connective tissue consists of cartilage, bone, blood and lymph. [10] Other kinds of connective tissues include fibrous, elastic, and lymphoid connective tissues. [11] Fibroareolar tissue is a mix of fibrous and areolar tissue. [12] Fibromuscular tissue is made up of fibrous tissue and muscular tissue.

  5. Parenchyma - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parenchyma

    Parenchyma is the tissue made up of cells and intercellular spaces that fills the interior of the body of a flatworm, which is an acoelomate. This is a spongy tissue also known as a mesenchymal tissue , in which several types of cells are lodged in their extracellular matrices .

  6. Tissue (biology) - Wikipedia

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

    In biology, tissue is an assembly of similar cells and their extracellular matrix from the same embryonic origin that together carry out a specific function. [1] [2] Tissues occupy a biological organizational level between cells and a complete organ. Accordingly, organs are formed by the functional grouping together of multiple tissues. [3]

  7. 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 ...

  8. Vascular tissue - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vascular_tissue

    Vascular tissue is a complex conducting tissue, formed of more than one cell type, found in vascular plants. The primary components of vascular tissue are the xylem and phloem. These two tissues transport fluid and nutrients internally. There are also two meristems associated with vascular tissue: the vascular cambium and the cork cambium.

  9. Matrix (biology) - Wikipedia

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

    In biology, matrix (pl.: matrices) is the material (or tissue) in between a eukaryotic organism's cells. The structure of connective tissues is an extracellular matrix. Fingernails and toenails grow from matrices. It is found in various connective tissues. It serves as a jelly-like structure instead of cytoplasm in connective tissue.
