Differentiate between sclerenchyma and parenchyma tissues. Draw well labelled diagram.
Parenchyma | Sclerenchyma |
---|---|
a. These cells consist of thin cell walls made up of cellulose. | a. These cells consist of thick and lignified cell walls. |
b. It is made up of living cells. | b. It is made up of dead cells. |
c. Cells are usually loosely packed with large intercellular spaces. | c. No intercellular spaces occur between the cells. |
d. It is primarily a storage tissue and stores nutrients and water in stem and roots. | d. It is primarily a mechanical tissue and provides mechanical strength to the plant part It is primarily a storage tissue and stores nutrients and water in stem and roots. |
e. These are cells found in soft parts of plants such as leaves, fruits. | e. These cells are found in mature part of the plant like herbaceous and woody plants. |

A force of 7 N acts on an object. The displacement is, say 8 m, in the direction of the force (Fig. 11.3). Let us take it that the force acts on the object through the displacement. What is the work done in this case?
What is meant by a pure substance?
How does the sound produced by a vibrating object in a medium reach your ear?
In a reaction, 5.3 g of sodium carbonate reacted with 6 g of ethanoic acid. The products were 2.2 g of carbon dioxide, 0.9 g water and 8.2 g of sodium observations are in agreement with the law of conservation of mass.
sodium carbonate + ethanoic acid → sodium ethanoate + carbon dioxide + water
