Dermal tissue- surrounds the shoot and roots (white in picture) Vascular tissue- contains the xylem and phloem (purple in picture) The companion cell controls what goes in and out of the sieve tube element. Ground tissue- non dermal and non-vascular tissue. (yellow in picture) Perform most metabolic functions of plants (photosynthesis, food storage, and synthesis and secretion. ) Their location within the plant determines their function. Collenchyma- cells with unevenly thickened walls that lack lignin. They are grouped into strands or cylinders to aid support without constricting growth. Lignin acts as support for the cell wall. Without it, the plant is more flexible (celery) Give strength and support to fully grown parts of the plant. Sclereids impart hardness to nutshells and the gritty texture to pears. Primary growth in roots occurs in the tips. They are constantly dividing so they don"t run out. It produces 3 primary meristems: protoderm, ground meristem, and procambium.
