Usually the tissue, consist a single layer. In the big trces the tissue forms scveral layers above the epidermis called bark. The, walls are very thick. In desert plants it may be even more thick and waxy. The tissue protects the plants, from loss of water, mechanical damage and invasion by discase causing organisms. Stomata and rool, hairs ure dermal tissues that perform gaseous exchange. Iranspiration as well as absorption of water and, minerals. The cells store food material. excretory substances and secretory substances. Gum secreted, from the dermal tissue of gum trees. Photosynthesis also carried out by some of the dermal tissues. These, tissues are divided into 3 types. They are epidermis (outer most layer), mesodermis (the middle layer), and endodermis (the inner most layer)., i, , Observing Stomata/ Dermal tissue (Activity):, Aim: Observing stomata in Rheo or Betel plant., Apparatus: Rheo plant or betel plant, slide, microscope, cover slip., , Procedure:, , Take a fresh leaf of Rheo or betel plant., 2.
