Lesson 1
Let’s Learn Plant Tissues

Organs such as stem, and roots in plants, and stomach, heart and lungs in animals are made up of different kinds of tissues. A
tissue is a group of cells with a common origin, structure and function. Their common origin means they are derived from
the same layer of cells in the embryo. Being of a common origin, there are similar in structure and hence perform the same
function. Several types of tissues organise to form an organ. Example : Blood, bone, and cartilage are some examples of
animal tissues whereas parenchyma, collenchyma, xylem and phloem are different tissues present in the plants. The study of
tissues is called histology.

The plant tissues are mainly of two catagories:

1. Meristematic (Gk. meristos : dividing)

2. Permanent (non-dividing)

1. Meristematic tissues

Composed of immature or undifferentiated cells without intercellular spaces. The cells may be rounded, oval or
polygonal; always living and thin-walled. Each cell has abundant cytoplasm and a prominent nucleus in it. Vacuoles may be
small or absent.

2.Permanent tissues

Permanent tissues are those in which growth has stopped either completely or for the time being. Cells of these
tissues may be living or dead; and thin-walled or thick-walled. Thin-walled permanent tissues are generally living whereas
the thick-walled tissues may be living or dead.
