Read the following statements carefully :(A) Present below epidermis in dicot stem.(B) Cells are much thickened at the corners due to deposition of cellulose, hemicellulose and pectin.(C) Provide mechanical support to the growing parts.These all are the features of

The collenchyma occurs in layers below the epidermis in most of the dicotyledonous plants. It is found either as a homogeneous layer or in patches. It consists of cells which are much thickened at the corners due to a deposition of cellulose, hemicellulose and pectin. They provide mechanical support to the growing parts of the plant such as young stem and petiole of a leaf.
