Chapter 31, Problem 31.5

(choose chapter or problem)

Three tissue systems make up the plant body. Roots, stems, and leaves are each made up of dermal, vascular, and ground tissues. Dermal tissue covers and protects the plant. In leaves, dermal tissue has stomata, pores with guard cells that regulate exchange of gases and water vapor with the environment. The vascular tissue system contains xylem and phloem, which function in support and transport. Xylem conveys water and dissolved minerals, and phloem transports sugars. The ground tissue system functions in storage, photosynthesis, and support.
