Q

(Simple Permanent Tissue)

- Many dead at maturity
- provides elasticity, the ability to be deformed, but snap back to their original size and shape when the pressure or tension is released

37
Q

Types of Sclerenchyma Cells

    walnuts and coconuts or the “pits” or “stones” of cherries and peaches)
A

Sclereids (Stone cells)

39
Q
  • Long; many types are dead, other types remain alive and are involved in storage.
  • Flexible; found in areas where strength and elasticity are important (wood of flowering plant, trunk and branches)

  • Elongates as the internode increases in length
A

Fibers

40
Q
  • Long and narrow with tapered ends; contain no perfora-tions. Dead at maturity. Found in all vascular plants.

    thru thin areas called “pits” found in the secondary wall
A

Tracheids

41
Q
  • Short and wide with rather perpendicular end walls; most contain one or two perforations. Dead at maturity. Found almost exclusively in flowering plants. Among nonflower-ing plants, only a few ferns, horsetails, and gymnosperms have vessels.
  • forms large hole called a perforation which greatly reduces the friction = water moves much more easily than through pits of tracheids
