Parenchyma cells are
(a) relatively unspecified and thin walled
(b) thick walled and specialised
(c) lignified
(d) none of these
Answer is (a)
Solution:
Parenchyma is a type of simple permanent tissue. It forms the bulk of the plant body. It is made up of living cells which are unspecialised and have thin cell walls. The cells are loosely arranged, thus large spaces between cells (intercellular spaces) are found in this tissue.
The correct option is – (a)- relatively unspecified and thin-walled.
