IMPORTANT DIFFERENCE
Meristematic tissues:
1. These tissues have the capacity to divide.
2. They have thin cellulose wall.
3. They do not have intercellular spaces.
4. They contain dense cytoplasm with prominent nucleus.
5. They contain many small vacuoles in their cytoplasm.
6. They produce permanent tissues.
7. They are responsible for the primary and secondary growth of the plants.
Permanent tissues:
1. These tissues have lost the capacity of division.
2. They have thick cellulose wall.
3. They have large intercellular spaces.
4. They contain thin cytoplasm with normal nucleus.
5. They contain a single large vacuole in their cytoplasm.
6. They are produced by meristemic tissues.
7. These tissues add to the various growths.

Simple Tissue:
1. Made up of the same type of cells., hence is homogeneous.
2. The cells are packed tightly together.
3. They occur in all parts of the plant.
4. They perform a wide range of functions.
5. Called epithelium in animals and epidermis in plants.
Complex Tissues:
1. It is composed different types of cells, hence is heterogeneous.
2. Inside or between organs and supports and binds other tissues
3. These have restricted distribution, they occur in vascular region only .
4. These are meant for conduction
5. Called connectivity tissue in animals and vascular tissue in plants.

Parenchyma –
1.Most abundant cell type in plants
2.Living at maturity with a very thin cell wall
3.Large vacuole for storage of materials
4.Relatively regular shape
5.Spherical
6.Very elastic (can change shape and then return to original shape with little deformation)
7.Functions of parenchyma cells include: photosynthesis ,storage ,secretion
8. plastids are well differentiated
Collenchyma –
1.Found just below the epidermis in petiole (e.g. celery stalks),
2.Living at maturity with a very thick cell wall
3. Small vacuole for storage of materials
4.Irregularly thickened cell walls (+cellulose)
5.circullar shaped
6.Plastic (can change shape but do not usually return to the original shape; remain deformed)
7.Functions of collenchyma cells include: support , some involvement in transport of nutrients
8. plastids are not well differentiated

Collenchyma:
1. It is simple permanent tissue consisting of living cells.
2. In T.S. the cells are polygonal with localized thickening on their walls confined to the corners only.
Cells contains protoplasm when young.
3. In L.S. the cells are elongated with longitudinal strips of thickening.
4. It is elastic and also strong enough to provide mechanical support.
Sclerenchyma:
1. It is also simple permanent tissue but consisting of dead cells.
2. In T.S. the cells are also polygonal with uniform thickening. Cell walls are very much thickened due to
deposition of lignin leaving a narrow lumen.
3. In L.S. the cells are long, narrow and pointed.
4. It is rigid and provides mechanical support to plant.

Striped Muscle / Straiated / Voluntary:

1. Dark and light bands are present. Thus they appear striated.
2. The muscle cells are elongated and cylindrical.
3. The muscle cells are multi-nucleated.
4. It is innervated by sensory and motor nerve fibres.
Unstriped Muscle / Nonstraited / Involuntary:-
1. Dark and light bands are absent. They appear non-striated.
2. The muscle cells are spindle shaped.
3. The muscle cells are uninucleated.
4. It is innervated by sympathetic and para-sympathetic nerves

Cartilage:
1. The cellular elements of the cartilages are chondrocytes.(= A cell that has secreted the matrix of
cartilage and become embedded in it.)
2. The matrix contains a protein called chondrin.
3. It is soft except calcified cartilage.
4. It is avascular (not supplied with blood vessels).
5. Marrow cavity is absent.
6. Canaliculi are absent.
7. Cartilage is covered by perichondrium.(= the membrane of white, fibrous connective tissue covering
cartilage, except at the joints)
Bone:
1. The cellular elements of the bone are osteocytes.(= A bone cell, formed when an osteoblast becomes
embedded in the matrix it has secreted)
2. The matrix contains a protein called ossein.
3. It is hard due to the deposition of phosphates and carbonates of calcium in the matrix.
4. It is vascular (supplied with blood vessels).
5. Marrow cavity is present.
6. Osteocytes are interconnected canaliculi.
7. Bone is covered by periosteum.(= A dense layer of vascular connective tissue enveloping the bones
except at the surfaces of the joints.)

Tendon:
1. The fibres are white and collagenous.
2. The fibres are arranged in parallel bundles.
3. Fibroblasts (biological cells) that are arranged in parallel rows
4. Tendon is fibrous connective tissue which connects bone to muscles or muscles to muscles.
Ligament:
1. The fibres are yellow and elastic.
2. The fibres are arranged diversely.
3. Fibroblasts are scattered.
4. Ligament is a fibrous connective tissue which connects bones.
