A
Meristematic Tissue
B
Permanent Tissue
C
Dermal Tissue
D
Sclerenchyma Tissue
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Phloem – This complex permanent tissue helps in the translocation of food that is prepared by photosynthesis in the leaves to various parts of the plant. Phloem consists of four elements. They are sieve tubes, companion cells, phloem fibres and phloem parenchyma.

Detailed explanation-2: -Ground tissue makes up most of the interior of a plant. It carries out basic metabolic functions and stores food and water. Vascular tissue runs through the ground tissue inside a plant. It consists of bundles of xylem and phloem, which transport fluids throughout the plant.

Detailed explanation-3: -Final answer: Secondary tissue is the plant tissue that is formed by permanent tissue.

Detailed explanation-4: -These tissues are composed of only one type of cell, unlike other tissues that have different types of cells working together. All the cells in this type of tissue are structurally similar, meaning they have the same parts. There are three main types of simple tissue: parenchyma, collenchyma, and sclerenchyma.

Detailed explanation-5: -Ans: The special permanent tissue uses are as follows: It mainly helps in giving support, and protection as well as in photosynthesis and conduction of water, minerals, and nutrients. This type of tissue may be living or dead.
