PSEB 9th Class Science Notes Chapter 6 Tissues

→ A cell is the structural and functional unit of life, while the group of cells coordinating to perform a specific function is called tissue.

→ The scientific study of tissues is called histology.

→ A cluster of cells called a tissue is arranged and designed so as to give the highest possible efficiency as tissues have provided division of labor in multicellular organisms.

→ A Group of tissues is called an organ.

→ A Group of organs constitute an organ system.

→ Due to improved organisation, higher efficiency, multicellular organisms have higher survival value.

→ Plant Tissues:

• Most of the plant cells are dead which provides mechanical strength and needs less maintenance.
• In plants, there is some tissue that continue dividing.
• On the basis of the power of division of cells, plant tissues are of two types: Meristematic tissues and permanent tissues.
• Meristematic tissue has the power of division throughout life, so helps in the growth of the plant but in some specific regions.
• Meristematic tissue is of three types: apical, lateral, and intercalary.
• Meristem is of two types depending upon the power of division: primary meristem and secondary meristem.
• Simple Permanent tissue has lost the division power and is of three types: Parenchyma, Collenchyma, and Sclerenchyma.
• Tissue may be simple or complex.
• Xylem and phloem are complex tissues.

→ Animal Tissues:

• On the basis of their functions, animal tissues are of four types: Epithelial, connective, muscular, and nervous tissue.

→ Even before the electron was identified by J.J. Thomson, E. Goldstein in 1886 discovered the presence of new radiations in a discharge tube called canal rays.

→ The canal rays were positively charged radiations which led to the discovery of the proton.

→ Proton has a charge, equal in magnitude but opposite in sign to that of electron and a mass approximately 2000 times as that of the electron.

→ Generally, the electron is represented by ‘e’ and a proton as ‘p’.

→ The mass of a proton is taken as one unit and charge +1.

→ The mass of an electron is considered to be negligible and its charge -1.

→ According to Rutherford’s model, there is a positively charged centre of an atom called a nucleus and contains nearly all the mass and all the positive charge.

→ The electrons revolve around the nucleus in circular paths. The size of the nucleus is very small as compared to the size of the atom.

→ Neils Bohr’s model of the atom was more successful.

→ He suggested that only certain special orbits known as discrete orbits of electrons are allowed inside the atom. While revolving electrons do not radiate energy.
