Question

Give one example protective tissue in plants

Answer 1

A protective tissue is the usually the outermost layer of the plants that cover the living cells of roots, leaves, and stem.

The cells in the protective tissue are usually one-cell thick and flattened with the top and bottom surfaces parallel to each other.
The cells in the protective tissue are covered with cutin and help in protecting the underlying tissues of the plant body.

The upper epidermis and the lower epidermis of the leaves are best examples of protective tissues of the plant.
