What to Focus On

  • A tissue has a common origin and a common function.
  • Plant tissues are classified developmentally into meristematic and permanent tissues.
  • Meristematic tissues produce new cells for growth.

  • Meristematic cells are living, thin-walled, and compactly arranged.
  • Proplastids are present instead of plastids.
  • Respiration is very high due to abundant mitochondria.

  • Permanent tissues arise from meristematic tissues.
  • They have a definite form, size, and function.
  • Simple permanent tissues are homogeneous.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

Root xylem is endarch and stem xylem is exarch.

Collenchyma has lignin in its cell walls because it gives support.

Sieve cells and sieve tubes are the same phloem cells.
