Embryonic tissues: primary meristems; secondary meristems. Supporting tissues: collenchyma; sclerenchyma. Filling and photosynthetic tissues: photosynthetic parenchyma; storage parenchyma. Conductive tissues: xylem; phloem. Covering tissues: epidermis; periderm.
2. Which are the growth tissues of plants? How do they classify and where can they be found?
The growth tissues of the plants are the meristems. Meristems are the tissues that produce the plant growth giving birth to all other tissues; they are formed of undifferentiated cells having intense cell division rate. Meristems classify as primary meristems and as secondary meristems.
