Dermal tissue that covers the outer parts of nonwoody plants

Dermal tissue on woody stems and roots consists of several layers of dead cells

Gnetophytes and flowing plants that have a second type of xylem cell

Ground tissue surrounding outside vascular tissue

Slender projections of the cell membrane that greatly increase the surface area of a root and its ability to absorb water and nutrients

Mass of cells that protects the actively growing root tip

A plant with flexible stems that are usually green

Bundles of xylem and phloem that are in vascular plants

The ground tissue that is located inside the vascular bundles
