Question

Why is the body of the plants irregular?

Answer 1

Plants:

1. These are multicellular, eukaryotic, and autotrophic organisms with cell walls.
2. The body of the plants is irregular due to the presence of collenchyma.
3. Collenchyma is a type of supporting tissue made up of elongated live cells with unevenly thickened, nonlignified main walls.
4. Collenchyma has thin walls but thickens with cellulose, water, and pectin compounds in the corners where several cells come together.
5. As a result, the cells are elongated and unevenly thickened at the corners.
