Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Collenchyma is a specialized supporting tissue which has living cells and possesses considerable tensile strength. Whereas sclerenchyma is also a simple tissue composed of thick-walled cells. The mature sclerenchyma cells differ from collenchyma cells in the presence of lignified secondary walls and the absence of living protoplast.
