The correct Answer is:
To solve the question, we need to identify the tissue type described and the substances involved in the thickening of the cell walls. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the Tissue**: The question states that the tissue consists of cells that are thickened at the corners. This description matches a specific type of plant tissue known for its thickened cell walls. - **Hint**: Think about plant tissues that provide support and have irregularly thickened corners. 2. **Name the Tissue**: The tissue with thickened corners is called **collenchyma**. This type of simple tissue is characterized by its living cells that provide support to the plant, especially in young stems and petioles. - **Hint**: Recall the types of simple tissues in plants and their functions. 3. **Identify the Components**: The question mentions that the thickening is due to the deposition of cellulose, hemicellulose, and another substance. - **Hint**: Consider what other substances are commonly found in plant cell walls that contribute to their structure. 4. **Determine the Missing Component**: The third component that is deposited along with cellulose and hemicellulose in collenchyma is **pectin**. Pectin is a polysaccharide that helps in cell wall stability and structure. - **Hint**: Think about the role of pectin in plant cell walls and how it contributes to their rigidity. 5. **Final Answer**: Based on the above analysis, we conclude that: - (A) **Collenchyma** - (B) **Pectin** ### Summary: (A) Collenchyma consists of cells which are much thickened at the corners due to the deposition of cellulose, hemicellulose, and (B) pectin.
