Study Notes
Plant Tissue System
- The ground tissue system forms the major part of a plant and comprises different types of tissues.
Cortex
- The hypodermis, a layer of the cortex, has a main function of providing mechanical support to the plant.
- The inner layer of the cortex is called the endodermis.
Endodermis
- Endodermal cells are characterized by the presence of Casparian strips and may contain starch granules.
Types of Tissue
- Simple non-meristematic tissue can be divided into four categories: cortex, parenchyma, collenchyma, and sclerenchyma.
