Vascular Tissues

Lining Tissues

→ epidermis

→ protection

Periderm – tissue made up of several corky cells.

Fundamental Tissues

→ interior of the plantPARENCHYMA

thin walled cellscommonly described as a simple, living, storage tissue

COLLENCHYMA

irregular thickening of cells found in pechay and celery stalks

SCLERENCHYMA

thick walled cells for structural support for the plant seed shells and pits

Vascular Tissues

→ primarily the xylem and phloem.

transports food within the body of the plant
