Difference Between Simple And Complex Tissue
Difference Between Simple And Complex Tissue: Simple tissues and Complex tissues are two types of permanent plant tissues. Simple permanent tissues are made up of a single type of cells. On the other hand, Complex permanent tissues are made up of more than one type of cells. Plant tissue refers to a group of cells that has a common origin, and similar structure and work together for a defined function for the plant and permanent tissue refers to a group of differentiated cells.
