STRUCTURE: These cells are large and contain chloroplasts (makes ground tissue) FUNCTION: to contract so that they can move body parts A cell that has a specific function, different from other cells. FUNCTION: Cells that cover the outside of the plan and reduces water loss FUNCTION: Lines the surfaces of blood vessels, organs, and skin for protection and separation of those items from the environment STRUCTURE: jelly-like with spindly fibers that help it to stick to other cells FUNCTION: Holds the different body parts together STRUCTURE: multiple cells are closely packed so items cannot enter easily AND secretes a waxy covering that helps protect the inside and keeps water from escaping. FUNCTION: These cells take water into the plant cells upward from the ground. (makes vascular tissue)
