MCQ
Flexibility in plants is due to:
  • A
    Collenchyma.
  • B
    Sclerenchyma.
  • C
    Parenchyma.
  • D
    Chlorenchyma.

Answer

  1. Chlorenchyma.

Explanation:

Collenchyma is a mechanical tissue in young dicotyledonous stems and provides mechanical support and elasticity. It provides great tensile strength with flexibility to those organs in which it is found. It allows easy bending in various parts of a plant mainly young growing stem without breaking them.
