organs the soluble substance such as proteins, aminoacids,
amines and sugars are converted into insoluble complexes
such as proteins. Strach grains and food is therefore stored
in the form of insoluble complexes.
There is large amount of food material which is
stored in endodermis, xylem parenchyma of the stem. Storage
House is generally made up of cells of parenchyma, which
have thin cellulose. Food material stored in the cotyledons
of seeds or in endosperm is used for growth and development
