A
Collenchyma
B
Parenchyma
C
Floral organ
D
Meristem
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Parenchyma tissue is involved in photosynthesis, secretion, food storage, and other activities of plant life. Collenchyma tissue provides support, structure, mechanical strength, and flexibility to the petiole, leaf veins, and stem of young plants, allowing for easy bending without breakage.

Detailed explanation-2: -Tissues made up of actively dividing cells are called meristematic tissues or meristems. Meristematic tissues are responsible for plant growth. They are present at the tips of roots, stem and branches. The cells present in these tissues constantly divide to produce new cells.

Detailed explanation-3: -Parenchyma Tissue: Parenchyma is a simple permanent tissue among three types of ground tissues in plants. It is a living, polygonal cell with a large central vacuole, and intercellular spaces between them. Parenchyma Tissue also known as mesenchymal tissue is spongy tissue.

Detailed explanation-4: -Parenchyma in plants refers to tissues that are formed by living cells with thin cell walls that can carry different functions depending on the needs of the plant. Parenchyma cells may be found in the roots, stems, and leaves of plants.

Detailed explanation-5: -Parenchyma is a type of tissue consists of cells that carry out an essential function. In botany (plant biology), parenchyma is the simple permanent ground tissues that form the bulk of the plant tissues, such as the soft part of leaves, fruit pulp, and other plant organs.
