♥ Hi mate ♥
♥ here is your answer ♥

Epidermis

1. Single layered group of cells that cover plant leaves, flowers, root and stem.
2. It is permeable in nature. Protect against water loss, gas exchange and absorb water and minerals.

Cork

1. The cork is a water proof protective layer (bark) present on the cork trees. It consists of dead cells.
2. Impermeable in nature.

♥ hope it may help you ♥

Difference Between Epidermal and Cork Cells


Main Difference – Epidermal vs Cork Cells

Epidermal cells and cork cells are two types of cells found in the outermost layer of plants. They occur in different parts of the pant body at different stages. The main difference between epidermal cells and cork cells is that epidermal cells cover the entire plant body during primary growth whereas cork cells cover the stem and root of the plant after the secondary growth of the plant. Epidermal cells are found in leaves and other immature parts of the plant. They occur as a single layer of cells. Cork cells originate from the cork cambium. 


Similarities Between Epidermal and Cork Cells

Epidermal cells and cork cells are two types of cells, which occur in the outermost layer of a plant.Both epidermal cells and cork cells lack chloroplasts.Both epidermal cells and cork cells prevent the air and water loss from the internal structures of the plant.Both epidermal cells and cork cells secrete water-repellent substances.

Difference Between Epidermal and Cork Cells

Definition

Epidermal Cells: Epidermal cells refer to the outermost layer of cells on the primary plant body.

Cork Cells: Cork cells refer to the cells of the outermost layer of the secondary stem and root.

Type of Growth

Epidermal Cells: Epidermal cells occur during both primary and secondary growth of the plant.

Cork Cells: Cork cells occur during the secondary growth.

During Primary Growth

Epidermal Cells: Epidermal cells cover the whole plant body during primary growth.

Cork Cells: Cork cells are absent during primary growth.

During Secondary Growth

Epidermal Cells: Epidermal cells are found in leaves and other immature parts of the stem and root during the secondary growth.

Cork Cells: Cork cells are found in the mature stem and root during the secondary growth.

Living Cells

Epidermal Cells: Epidermal cells are living cells.

Cork Cells: Cork cells are non-living cells.

Water-repellent Substances

Epidermal Cells: Cutin is the water-repellent substance secreted by epidermal cells.

Cork Cells: Suberin is the water-repellent substance secreted by cork cells.

Number of Layers

Epidermal Cells: Epidermal cells consist of a single cell layer.

Cork Cells: Cork cells consists of multiple layers of cells.

Occurrence

Epidermal Cells: Epidermal cells are found in all type of plants.

Cork Cells: Cork cells are found in woody.
