Collenchyma in plants:
I: occurs in layers below the epidermis in most of the dicotyledonous plants.
II: consists of cells that are much thickened at the corners due to deposition of cellulose, hemicellulose, and pectin.
III: never contains chloroplasts.
IV: provides mechanical support to the growing parts of the plant such as the young stem and petiole of a leaf.

Which feature is characteristic of sclerenchyma cells?
1. They have thin walls and are living at maturity.
2. They are primarily involved in storage of nutrients.
3. They have thick, lignified secondary walls and are usually dead at maturity.

How many of the following statements about plant tissues are correct?
I: Sclerenchyma cells are typically dead and have thickened lignified walls that help in providing structural support.
II: Xylem tissues are primarily involved in the storage of proteins and starch.
III: Phloem tissues are responsible for the transport of water and minerals from the roots to the leaves.
IV: Parenchyma cells are versatile cells that can store food, and are also involved in photosynthesis and repair.
