Question 6 • Fall 24 GSE Biology B-IC

What do sclerenchyma and collenchyma have in common?

Answer
A
They are both thin-walled.
B
They are both dead cells.
C
They both function for support.
D
They both function for food production and storage.

Explanation

Sclerenchyma and collenchyma are both plant tissues that help support the plant. Collenchyma cells are living and have unevenly thickened walls, while sclerenchyma cells are usually dead with thick, rigid walls. So they are not both thin-walled or dead; their shared function is support.
