main metabolic tissue; site of most synthesis, carbohydrates, storage, and growth; totipotent
Transports material; xylem and phloem
Gives rise to epidermal tissue
Cells dead at maturity; fluid travels through wide vessels and narrow tracheids; carries water and dissolved nutrients
Includes trichomes, guard cells, cuticle; forms outer layer
Gives rise to vascular tissues
Gives rise to ground tissues
Transported through sieve tubes; carries organic material; both upward and downward movement; includes sugars
Supports the plant and permits growth
possesses a secondary cell wall; creates hard rigid support in seeds and mature areas of plants
flexible cell walls; lies below epidermis, provides support and flexibility
