    The document discusses the three main types of plant tissues: dermal, ground, and vascular tissue. Dermal tissue is the outermost layer found in the epidermis and periderm. It protects the plant from water loss and infection. Ground tissue makes up most of the plant's body and includes parenchyma, collenchyma, and sclerenchyma cells. Parenchyma tissue stores nutrients and regenerates tissue. Collenchyma provides flexible support during primary growth. Sclerenchyma has thickened dead cells that support mature plants and seeds. Vascular tissue transports water, minerals and sugars throughout the plant. It includes xylem and phloem

    Good day to everyone. Today we are going to discuss plant tissues.

    But before we proceed to


    the activity proper, let's have a recap first. At the last meeting, group 1 discussed plant cells, in
    which they pointed out that cells are made up of organelles, and they are considered the basic
    unit of life, or the smallest form of life, as they can generate their own energy and reproduce
    themselves, and as the cells group together and perform the same function, with similar in
    their  structure it is now already called a tissue.

    Plants have 3 main types of tissues, and all of these tissues are comprised of 3 different types of
    plant cells, namely parenchyma, collenchyma, and sclerenchyma. So let's go through this tissue
    now. First up, the dermal tissue. It is found in the epidermis and periderm of a plant. This is the
    outermost layer. The epidermis produces a noncellular layer called the cuticle on some parts of
    the shoot system. The cuticle protects against excessive water loss and infection by
    microorganisms. The cuticle also restricts gas exchange across the surface of the epidermal
    cells. During secondary growth in roots and stems, the epidermis is replaced with the periderm.
    Some peridermal cells form layers of special cells that die very quickly but leave behind a
    material that waterproofs the roots and stem, which protects the inner tissues from structural
    damage. Dermal tissue often contains specialized cells such as root hair cells and leaf guard
    cells.

    The next tissue is the ground tissue, which makes up the majority of the plant's body. It is
    broken into subgroups according to the cell types. Perenchyma is a living ground tissue that
    makes up the bulk of the primary plant body and takes part in several tasks such as
    photosynthesis which happens in leaves (mesophyll) , storage, and regeneration. It stores
    nutrients, carbohydrates, and water. The parenchyma is capable of healing wounds and
    regenerating parts of the plant. Wound closure is very important because if the plant has an
    open wounds it allows pathogens such fungi, bacteria and many more to invade the plant and
    quickly kill it.

    Collenchyma is living ground tissue that offers flexible support for primary growth. The
    collenchyma is specialized for supporting the plants' primary growth regions and therefore
    makes the plant stronger. The cell walls are thickened and provide a measure of flexibility
    which allows the plant to withstand windy conditions. 

    Sclerenchyma is a ground tissue whose mature cells are dead. Its cell walls are composed of
    cellulose and lignin. Sclerenchyma supports mature plants and protects seeds. This ground
    tissue has an extra layer that provides added strength and rigidity to the cells. These cells may
    occur as a continuous mass, small clusters, or can be individually scattered.

    The last tissue that we'll be talking about is the vascular tissue, and this includes the xylem and
    the phloem along with some collenchyma and parenchyma cells. The xylem is the main tissue
    for transporting water and minerals throughout the plant. The xylem contains fibers and water-
    conducting cells called tracheids and vessels. While, on the other hand, the phloem transports
    sugars and other solutions. The phloem is living tissue, unlike the xylem. Sieve tubes are long
    tubes formed by many sieve elements to allow easy passage of water and dissolved minerals.
    Sieve elements are associated with companion cells, which lie next to the sieve elements and
    direct the activity of sieve tubes and supply needed substances when required.
