What is pith
  • 1 answers

Meghna Thapar 4 years, 9 months ago

Pith, or medulla, is a tissue in the stems of vascular plants. Pith is composed of soft, spongy parenchyma cells, which store and transport nutrients throughout the plant. ... In trees pith is generally present in young growth, but in the trunk and older branches the pith often gets replaced - in great part - by xylem. Because monocots have vascular bundles throughout their ground tissue, their stems do not have a discernible pith; the parenchyma cells in monocot stems are referred to simply as ground tissue.
