Plant Tissues
The internal tissue systems that make up a flowering plant.
Meristematic and Permanent Tissues
- Meristematic tissue — actively dividing cells responsible for growth
- Permanent tissue — cells that have stopped dividing and taken on a specific function
Tissue Systems
Plant tissues are organised into the epidermal, ground (fundamental), and vascular tissue systems — the latter consisting of xylem (water transport) and phloem (food transport).
