Question

Vascular tissue contains parenchyma and collenchyma.

• A. True
• B. False

Answer 1

The correct option is A True

Vascular tissue:

1. Vascular tissue is a complex conducting tissue found in vascular plants that are made up of multiple cell types.
2. The xylem and phloem are the two main components of vascular tissue.
3. Internally, these two tissues transfer fluid and nutrients.
4. The vascular cambium and the cork cambium are two meristems linked with vascular tissue.
5. Between the epidermis and the vascular tissues is the Cortex.
6. Collenchyma near the epidermis and Parenchyma near the vascular tissues are both present.
7. The Parenchyma is made up of big, thin-walled cells.
8. The cells are loosely organized, with intercellular spaces between them.
9. Collenchyma cells are elongated, thin-walled cells with very little cytoplasm and no big vacuoles.
10. They are most commonly seen between vascular tissue bundles or on the outside of vascular bundles.
11. Collenchyma is a type of plant tissue that makes up the majority of plant tissues, along with Parenchyma.

Final answer: The given statement is true.
