  • Some epidermal cells have specialized functions such as guard cells (stomata) or trichomes (hairs).
  • Epidermal cells are usually thin-walled, with small vacuoles and chloroplasts.
  • The epidermis is the outermost layer of cells that covers all plant organs.
  • Xylem transports water from roots to leaves through tubes called vessels.
  • Vascular bundles are composed of xylem and phloem, which transport water and nutrients throughout the plant.
  • The epidermis consists of one to several layers of closely packed parenchyma cells that form a continuous sheet covering all aboveground parts of the plant.
  • The outermost layer of the plant body is called the epidermis.
  • Phloem transports sugars made by photosynthesis from leaves to other parts of the plant.
  • Guard cells regulate stomatal opening and closing through changes in cell shape.
  • Stomata are openings on the surface of leaves that allow gas exchange between the leaf and atmosphere.
  • It provides protection against water loss, pathogens, and physical damage.
  • In some plants, there may be additional layers of cells beneath the epidermis, including subepidermal tissue and hypodermal tissue.
  • Guard cells regulate the opening and closing of stomata based on environmental conditions like light intensity and humidity.
  • Stomata are openings on the surface of leaves that allow gases such as carbon dioxide (CO2) and oxygen (O2) to enter or exit the leaf.
  • Xylem transports water and minerals upwards from roots to shoots.
  • Stomata are small openings on the surface of leaves that allow gases such as carbon dioxide (CO2) and oxygen (O2) to enter and exit the leaf.
  • Stomata are openings on the surface of leaves that allow gases such as oxygen and carbon dioxide to enter or exit the leaf.
  • Trichomes are hairlike structures found on the surfaces of many plants.
  • Guard cells regulate the opening and closing of stomata based on environmental conditions.
  • Collenchyma tissue provides support but can stretch when needed.
  • Cork cambium produces cork cells which form the protective bark on stems and roots.
  • Trichomes are hairlike structures found on the surfaces of plants, including leaves, stems, flowers, and fruits.
  • Palisade mesophyll cells contain chloroplasts and are responsible for photosynthesis.
  • Trichomes are hair-like structures found on the surfaces of plants.
  • Epidermal tissue can be found in roots as well.
  • Palisade mesophyll contains chloroplasts and is responsible for photosynthesis.
  • Epidermis is the outermost layer of plant tissue that protects against water loss and pathogens.
  • Palisade mesophyll cells contain chloroplasts for photosynthesis and are stacked closely together for maximum light absorption.
  • Meristematic tissue is undifferentiated and capable of dividing into new cells.
  • Spongy mesophyll cells have large air spaces that allow for gas exchange during photosynthesis.
  • Epidermis is the outermost layer of cells covering all above-ground parts of a plant.
  • Epidermal cells have waxy cuticles covering their walls, reducing water loss through transpiration.
  • Epidermis is the outermost layer of plant tissue that protects against pathogens and regulates gas exchange through stomata.
  • Parenchyma tissue is made up of thin-walled cells with large vacuoles and performs various functions including photosynthesis, storage, and protection.
  • The epidermis is the outermost layer of plant tissue, providing protection against water loss and pathogens.
  • The epidermis also contains specialized cells called guard cells that control the opening and closing of stomata.
  • Stomata are openings in the epidermis that control gas exchange between the leaf and atmosphere.
  • Stomata are openings in the epidermis that allow gas exchange between the plant and its environment.
  • Guard cells control the opening and closing of stomata based on environmental conditions such as light intensity and humidity.
  • Stomata are small openings found on the underside of leaves that allow gases to enter and exit the leaf.
