Study Notes
Plant Tissues
- Plant tissues have roles in water and food transport, as well as structural support.
- Protective tissues prevent desiccation and pathogens.
Plant Tissue Types
- Meristematic tissue can divide, while permanent tissue cannot.
- Meristematic tissue lacks specialization, permanent tissue displays a degree of specialization.
Animal Tissues
- Animal tissues include epithelial (covering and protection), muscular (movement), and connective (support and protection).
- Connective tissues in animals consist of blood, tendons, ligaments, cartilage, and bone.
