A) Parenchymatous tissues have intercellular spaces
B) Collenchymatous tissues are irregularl thickened at corners
C) Apical and intercalary meristems are permanent tissues
D) Meristematic tissues, in its early stage, lack vacuoles
Correct Answer: C
Solution :
[c] Parenchyma serves as a packing tissue in plants, therefore they do not have intercellular spaces. Collenchymatous tissues are mechanical tissues in the plants and are characterised by deposition of cellulose at the corners of the cell, which leads to localised thickenings of the cell wall. Apical and intercalary meristem bring primary growth (increase in height) and secondary growth (increase in diameter) respectively and are classified under roeristematic tissues. Meristematic tissue are dividing units of the plants and contain dense cytoplasm and large nucleus with few or no vacuoles at ail.
