Survival of plants in terrestrial environment has been made possible by the presence of conducting tissue. Intercalary meristems are capable of cell division, and they allow for rapid growth and regrowth of many monocots.

Parenchyma is integral to vascular tissue, where it provides a route of exchange for materials within and between the xylem and the phloem.
