and outer tangential walls. Lacunar Collenchyma Lacunar collenchyma consist thickening around the cell walls facing the cavity lumen or intracellular spaces. Sclerenchyma tissue is composed of cells with rigid cell walls and they function to support the weight of a plant organ. The main function is as supporting tissues that withstands various strains resulting from stretching and bending which makes the plant elastics.
