What to Focus On

  • Tissue means a group of similar cells with one function.
  • An organ is made of different tissues working together.
  • An organ system is made of organs working together.

  • Plant tissues are mainly meristematic and permanent.
  • Meristematic tissue forms new cells.
  • Permanent tissue does not divide and has specialised cells.

  • Found at growing points and between bark and wood.
  • Cells are small, cubical, thin-walled, and tightly packed.
  • Large nuclei and almost no vacuoles are present.

Common Mistakes to Avoid
