Varastointiparenkyymiä
Varastointiparenkyymi is a type of plant tissue composed of parenchyma cells that are specialized for storing various substances. These substances can include starch, lipids, proteins, water, and ions. This tissue is found in many plant organs, such as roots, stems, fruits, and seeds. Its primary function is to serve as a reservoir for nutrients and energy, which can be mobilized when the plant requires them, for example, during periods of dormancy, germination, or stress.
The cells of varastointiparenkyymi are typically large and thin-walled, allowing for efficient storage and mobilization of
