Detailed explanation-1: -Dermal tissue covers and protects the plant. The ground tissue serves as a site for photosynthesis, provides a supporting matrix for the vascular tissue, and helps to store water and sugars. The vascular tissue transports water, minerals, and sugars to different parts of the plant.
Detailed explanation-2: -Parenchyma tissues are found in the soft parts of the plant like the leaf. They help in photosynthesis and storage of food.
Detailed explanation-3: -Photosynthates, such as sucrose, are produced in the mesophyll cells (a type of parenchyma cell) of photosynthesizing leaves.
Detailed explanation-4: -The parenchyma remains a living cell at maturity. It is also the most common cell type, performing diverse functions, e.g. photosynthesis, storage, and secretion.
