The ground tissue system synthesizes organic compounds, supports the plant and provides storage for the plant. It is mostly made up of plant cells called parenchyma cells but can also include some collenchyma and sclerenchyma cells as well. Parenchyma cells synthesize and store organic products in a plant.
Plant organs are made of plant tissues, which are made of plant cells. All plants have tissues, but not all plants possess all three of the following types of tissues: Dermal tissue: Consisting primarily of epidermal cells, dermal tissue covers the entire surface of a plant. Ground tissue: This tissue type makes up most of a plantâs body and contains three types of cells: Parenchyma cells are the most common ground tissue cells. They perform many basic plant cell functions, including storage, photosynthesis, and secretion.
