Question
Differentiate between parenchyma, collenchyma and sclerenchyma on the basis of their cell wall.
Answer
The differentiation based on the cell wall:
Parenchyma: The cell walls are thin and made up of cellulose.
Collenchyma: The cell walls are irregularly thickened at the corners.
Sclerenchyma: The cell walls are thickened due to lignin (lignified) and possess no intercellular spaces.
