. Differentiate between parenchyma collenchyma
and sclerenchyma on the basis of their cell wall.
Best Answer
Explanation : The three of them are Simple tissues that have only one type of cell present.
Differences between the tissues on the basis of their cell wall -
- Parenchyma - They are living cells with Cellulose present in their cell wall.
- Collenchyma - They are thin walled living cells with an uneven cell wall made of Pectin, Cellulose and Hemicellulose
- Sclerenchyma - They are dead cells and have a thick and hard cell wall made of lignin.
Final Answer : The cell wall of Parenchyma is made up of Cellulose while Collenchyma has a cell wall made of Cellulose, Pectin and Hemicellulose.
Sclerenchyma has a cell wall made of lignin.
