Which statement BEST describes the relationship between collenchyma and sclerenchyma?
Both are composed of living cells at maturity.
Both have evenly thickened cell walls.
Both contain lignin in their cell walls.
Both provide structural support, but collenchyma provides flexible support in growing regions while sclerenchyma provides rigid support in mature regions.
