This chart shows the types of ground tissue and their functions. mc012-1.jpgmc012-2.jpg which row (a, b, c, or d) best matches each ground tissue with its function? a b c d

The right answer is A.

Let's resume Plant tissues and their roles:

* Meristems are devolved to growth by cell multiplication;

* The covering fabrics ensure the protection of the organs vis-à-vis the

external environment;

* Parenchyma represent the bulk of the organ volume; they are

formed of poorly differentiated cells and perform various functions:

chlorophyll assimilation, storage of reserves ...

* Support tissues are made of thick-walled cells of lignin or

cellulose, giving the organs a certain rigidity;

* The conductive tissues ensure the circulation of the sap, to the organs

aerial for raw or ascending sap, to underground organs for

sap developed or descending;

* The endoderm and the pericycle are two cellular bases surrounding the

central cylinder;

* The secretory tissues release various substances (nectar, latex ...).
