Flashcards
Ground Tissue System
Ground Tissue System
The fundamental tissue system in plants, responsible for a variety of functions like storage, support, photosynthesis, and production of defensive & attractant substances.
Parenchyma
Parenchyma
A simple tissue type found mainly in stems, responsible for storage of water, nutrients, and waste products.
Collenchyma
Collenchyma
A type of tissue found in all plant organs, with cells that have thick primary walls, providing flexible support to growing parts.

Study Notes
Ground Tissue System in Plants
- The Ground Tissue System is responsible for storage, support, photosynthesis, and production of defensive and attractant substances in plants.
Types of Tissues in the Ground Tissue System
- There are three types of tissues in the Ground Tissue System: parenchyma, collenchyma, and sclerenchyma.
Characteristics of Tissues in the Ground Tissue System
- Parenchyma tissue is found mainly in stems and is responsible for storage and photosynthesis.
- Collenchyma tissue is present in all organs of a plant and provides support and flexibility.
- Sclerenchyma tissue has cells with thick secondary walls and provides mechanical support to the plant.
