Overview of Plant and Animal Tissues

The document describes different types of plant and animal tissues. It outlines four types of plant tissues: meristematic tissues which have the ability to develop and are found at growing tips, internodes, and stems/roots; and permanent tissues which have lost the ability to divide but are specialized. Permanent tissues include simple tissues found throughout the plant that provide structure and complex tissues in the vascular system like xylem and phloem. The document also lists the main animal tissue types as epithelial, connective, muscular, and nervous.

Meristematic Tissues
These tissues have the capability to develop. Growth in length and growth in diameter of
the plant is carried about by these tissues

Apical Meristem Intercalary Meristem Lateral Meristem

Existent at the growing tips or apical Found at the internodes or at the base Existent in the radial portion of the
of stems and roots. Apical meristem of the leaves. Intercalary meristem stem or root. Lateral meristem
upsurges the length of the plant. upsurges the size of the internode. upsurges the thickness of the plant.
Permanent Tissues
These cells have lost their ability to distribute but are specialized to offer elasticity,
flexibility and strength to the plant.

Simple Permanent Tissues Complex Permanent Tissues

Simple permanent tissues are virtually present Complex permanent plant tissues are present in
in every part of the plant. The major functions the vascular region of the plant.
of the simple permanent tissue are to provide
support and protection to the plant. Apart from Xylem : helps in the transport of water and
these, they are also responsible for: tissue minerals from the roots to the leaves and stems
repair, secretion, food storage, and
photosynthesis. Floem : helps in the transportation of food all
through the plant.
