Lignin, a chemical substance is deposited in the secondary wall of sclerenchyma.
What are guard cells?
Each stomata is surrounded by a pair of guard cells. Guard cells regulate the opening and closing of stomata.
What are boutons?
Boutons are the swollen endings of the axon where synapsis with other neurons occur.
The features that best describe the cells of parenchyma cells are:
Explanation:
Parenchyma cells are living and thin walled. They are oval, spherical or polygonal in shape. They have large, intercellular space between the cells.
The correct order of the parts of nerve cells through which the nerve impulse is transmitted is:
Explanation:
Nerve impulse travel along the axons and dentrites. Nerve impulses enter a neuron along the dentrites and leave the neuron along the axon. Thus, the correct sequence through which nerve impulse is transmitted is: dendrites, cell body, axon, nerve endings.
