Each type of plant tissue has specific functions essential for the plant's survival and growth:
- Meristematic Tissues: Facilitate growth by producing new cells. - Parenchyma: Involved in storage, photosynthesis, and healing. - Collenchyma: Provides flexible support, allowing bending without breaking. - Sclerenchyma: Imparts strength and rigidity. - Xylem: Transports water and minerals. - Phloem: Transports food and nutrients.
