Answer

Sclerenchyma

Reason — Sclerenchyma is composed of long, narrow and thick-walled dead cells to provide strength to the plant parts. Collenchyma is a living tissue found in young stems and leaves. It provides flexible support to the plant. Meristematic tissues consist of actively dividing living cells that help in plant growth. Parenchyma is a living tissue involved in storage, photosynthesis, and other basic functions.
