medical health skin and dermatologyWhat tissue system contains the most photosynthesizing cells?
Accordingly, what are the 3 main tissue systems in plants?
The tissues of a plant are organized into three tissue systems: the dermal tissue system, the ground tissue system, and the vascular tissue system.
Consequently, what tissue are guard cells found in?
As mentioned, guard cells are bean/kidney-shaped cells located on plant epidermis. As such, they, like trichomes and pavement cells, are also epidermal cells. Between each pair of guard cells is a stoma (a pore) through which water and gases are exchanged.
Each plant organ (roots, stems, leaves) contains all three tissue types: Dermal tissue covers and protects the plant, and controls gas exchange and water absorption (in roots). Dermal tissue of the stems and leaves is covered by a waxy cuticle that prevents evaporative water loss.
