Question 1 Report

A plant parenchyma cell also acts as a supporting tissue when it
Answer Details
When a plant parenchyma cell becomes turgid, it also acts as a supporting tissue. Turgidity refers to the state of the cell when it is fully hydrated and swollen, which causes it to be rigid and provide structural support to the plant. When a plant cell loses water and becomes flaccid, it cannot provide support to the plant. The presence of crystals or pigmentation in the cell does not necessarily affect its ability to act as a supporting tissue.
