Plant Tissues
1) Dermal Tissues
• Outer covering
• Protection
2) Vascular Tissues
• “Vessels” throughout plant
• Transport materials
3) Ground Tissues
• “Body” of plant
• Photosynthesis; storage; support
Parenchyma
Collenchyma
Sclerenchyma
What type of tissue transports fluids in plants?
A. Dermal
B. Roots
C. Vascular
D. Stems
E. Ground
Plant Cell Types
Plant cell structure recap
Cell wall, plasmodesmata
• plant metabolism:
Photosynthesis;
hormone secretion;
sugar storage
Parenchyma cells in
Elodea leaf,(w/chloroplasts) • thin wall permeable to gasses
• large central vacuole
• able to divide and differentiate
Plant Cell Types
2) Collenchyma:
Thick-walled (uneven); living
• Offers support
(flexible & strong)
• Able to elongate
• Grouped in
strands, lack
secondary wall
Collenchyma cells sunflower
Plant Cell Types
3) Sclerenchyma: Thick, hard-walled; Dead
• Offer support (e.g. hemp
Sclereid cells fibers; nut shells)
in pear (LM)
• Thick secondary walls
with lignin
• Rigid (cannot elongate)
• Two types –
Cell wall sclereids and fibers
A. secondary
B. vascular
C. ground
D. collenchyma
E. leaves
Plant Tissues - Dermis
Dermal Tissue System (Covering of Plant):
1) Epidermal Tissue
(epidermis): Outer layer
Stomata
Guard cells
Epidermal cell
a. 4 µm c. 200 µm
Companion Cells:
• Adjacent to every sieve tube
element
• Non-conducting.
• Regulate both cells
• Connected by numerous
plasmodesmata
Vasculature - Comparisons
Monocots and dicots differ in the arrangement of
vessels in the roots and stems

Root
Plant Tissues – Ground Tissue
• Root Roles:
- Anchoring the plant
- Absorbing minerals and water
- Storing organic nutrients
Roots - Comparisons
Taproots: Fibrous roots:
• Four regions:
– Root cap
Protection, gravity detection
– Zone of cell division
Mitotic divisions
– Zone of elongation
Cells lengthen, no division
– Zone of maturation
Cells differentiate, outer layer
becomes dermis
Roots – Structure and Development
In maturation zone, Casparian strip forms –
waterproof barrier material surrounding vasculature

Stems – Structure and Development
• Stems have all three types of
plant tissue
• Grow by division at meristems
– Develop into leaves, other
shoots, and even flowers

Plant Classification – Monocots vs. Dicots
1) Primary Growth:
• Apical Meristems:
Mitotic cells at “tips” of roots / stems length
1) Increased length
2) Specialized structures (e.g. fruits)
