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.
