Answer

Dermal tissue covers the body of the plant, forming a single cell layer called the epidermis. Ground tissue refers to the tissue between the vascular and dermal tissues. These cells are tasked with storage and support, as well as photosynthesis. The vascular system represents the plant's transport system, consisting of xylem and phloem tubes that move nutrients, water and glucose throughout the organism.
