Plant Growth: Meristematic Tissues and Permanent Tissues

  • Growth in plants is facilitated by meristematic tissues, which can be apical, intercalary, or lateral.
  • Apical meristem is found at the tips of plants, aiding in primary growth by increasing height.
  • Shoot apical meristem and root apical meristem are the two types of apical meristem, responsible for stem and root growth respectively.
  • Lateral meristem, also known as lateral meristem, contributes to secondary growth by increasing stem thickness.
  • Intercalary meristem is present in some monocot plants like grasses, aiding in stem lengthening between nodes.
  • Intercalary meristem helps in regenerating leaves after grazing by cattle.
  • Meristematic tissues like apical and intercalary meristem focus on primary growth, while lateral meristem contributes to secondary growth.
  • Permanent tissues do not divide and can be simple or complex, with cells of the same type in simple permanent tissues.
  • Complex permanent tissues consist of different types of cells, such as xylem and phloem.
  • Xylem and phloem are examples of complex permanent tissues with various cell types for specific functions in plants.

  • Aerenchyma is another modified parenchyma with air cavities that help in floating aquatic plants.
  • Collenchyma tissue has thick, uneven cell walls, providing support and flexibility to plants during storms.
  • Collenchyma is found in stems, tendrils, and petioles, aiding in bending and rotation of plant parts.
  • Sclerenchymatous tissue is a dead tissue with lignified, thick cell walls, providing hardness and support to plants.
  • Sclerenchymatous tissue lacks intercellular spaces and has uniform thick cell walls with lignin deposits.

Plant Tissues: Structure and Function

  • Slane Cama's sales have been done many times in various fiber forms.
  • The cell wall of sclera is very thick, thicker than usual, and contains abundant chemicals like Ligan.
  • Sclerema provides hardness to plants due to the presence of Ligan in its cell wall.
  • The husk of the coconut is made of sclerenchymatous structures.
  • Veins of leaves contain sclerenchymatous tissues, providing hardness.
  • Permanent tissues in plants include parenchyma, collenchyma, and sclerenchyma.
  • Complex tissues like xylem and phloem transport water, minerals, and food in plants.
  • Xylem is made up of tracheids, vessels, fibers, and parenchyma cells, with a role in water and mineral transportation.
  • Phloem consists of sieve tubes, companion cells, phloem fibers, and phloem parenchyma, aiding in food transportation.
  • Protective tissues like epidermis and cork provide a barrier against external factors for plant growth and protection.

Plant Skin: Epidermis, Hypodermis, and Stomata

  • The layer of cells beneath the epidermis is known as the hypodermis.
  • The epidermis is the outer layer of cells, while the hypodermis is below it.
  • The epidermis protects the skin and provides protection.
  • The epidermis contains tiny pore-like structures called stomata.
  • Stomata allow for the exchange of gases and help in transpiration.
  • The space between cells in the epidermis is called stomata.
  • Stomata are crucial for gas exchange and transpiration in plants.
  • Desert plants have a protective coating called cuticle made of wax-like substance.
  • Cork tissue is a protective tissue found in plants, providing protection and preventing water loss.
  • Cork tissue is made up of cells with a thick cell wall containing a chemical compound called suberin.

Understanding Epithelial Tissue: Structure and Function

  • Epithelial tissue wraps and protects the body's surface, aiding in secretion, absorption, and substance movement.
  • Cells in epithelial tissue are tightly packed with no intercellular space, forming continuous sheets with gaps.
  • The basement membrane supports the epithelial tissue, with cement-like material holding cells together.
  • Epithelium functions in protection, absorption, removal of substances, and hormone secretion.
  • Epithelium can be classified based on the number of layers (simple or stratified) and cell shape (squamous, cuboidal, columnar).
  • Simple epithelium has a single layer of cells, while stratified epithelium has multiple layers.

  • Adipose tissue, found in the belly, stores a significant amount of fat, aiding in temperature regulation in the body.
  • Adipose tissue helps regulate body temperature by trapping heat inside, preventing heat loss and maintaining a stable body temperature.
  • The nervous tissue forms the nervous system, comprising the brain, spinal cord, and nerves, responsible for controlling the body and transmitting information.
  • Neurons, the structural and functional units of the nervous system, transmit signals from one part of the body to another through dendrites, cell bodies, axons, and nerve endings.
  • Neurons communicate through synapses, with a gap between them, ensuring they do not physically connect but transmit signals effectively.
  • Different plant tissues, like meristematic cells and sclerenchyma, serve specific functions such as cell division and support, respectively.
  • Plants like cacti develop thick epidermis and cuticles to prevent water loss in high-temperature environments.
  • Sclerenchyma in fruits like pears and coconut husks provides hardness and support, making them challenging to eat or remove due to their strong and non-flexible nature.
