Which of the following has unevenly thick cell wall, has a primary wall (cellulose) and a secondary wall (hemicellulose or pectin), and is a simple, living, primarily mechanical tissue of the plant body?
1. Parenchyma
2. Collenchyma
3. Sclerenchyma
4. Aerenchyma
Identify the correct statement regarding collenchymas in plants:-
1. | They occur in layers below the epidermis of monocotyledonous plants. |
2. | Cells are much thickened at the corners due to the deposition of lignin. |
3. | Collenchymatous cells do not contain chloroplasts. |
4. | They provide mechanical strength to the growing parts of the plant. |
The main function of the plant tissue shown below is:
1. Storage of nutrients
2. Providing buoyancy to submerged plants
3. Mechanical support to growing parts of a plant
4. Increase in the length of the plant
Lignified cell wall is characteristic feature of
(1) Parenchyma
(2) Collenchyma
(3) Sclerenchyma
(4) None
Sclerenchymatous fibres are
1. thick walled, elongated and pointed cells
2. contains simple and bordered pits
3. smallest cells in plant body
4. All of these
Mechanical support to the growing parts of the plant such as young stem and petiole of leaf is provided by a living tissue called
1. | Collenchyma | 2. | Aerenchyma |
3. | Chlorenchyma | 4. | Sclerenchyma |
Which of the following function can be performed by
both parenchyma and collenchyma?
1. Storage.
2. Photosynthesis.
3. Secretion.
4. All.
Lignin is a component of the secondary walls of:-
1. Epidermis
2. Collenchyma
3. Sclerenchyma
4. Parenchyma
Choose odd with respect to collenchyma
1. Living mechanical tissue
2. Intercellular space is absent in angular type
3. Thickening of the wall is due to deposition of lignin
4. Found in hypodermis of dicot stem
Cells having cellulose, hemicellulose and pectin deposits on the wall and shows its presence commonly in the petiole of leaf and growing green stems belong to
1. Sclerenchyma
2. Collenchyma
3. Aerenchyma
4. Parencyma
