Question

how does cart act as a protective tissue ?

Answer 1

Hello friend,
Here's the answer to your question...
Cells of cork are dead and arranged without intercellular spaces. They also have a chemical called Siberian in their walls that makes them impervious to gases and water, thus they provide strong mechanical strength to plants.Cork is the tissue on the outer periphery of a tree. Usually it is on a old tree. It is also called the bark. It protects the tissue inside.

Cork tissue are dead actually. They are very very closely packed. So there are no gaps between the cells. External harmful organisms cannot enter inside.

Cork forms several layers on the outside. There is a deposit of suberin on their cell walls. So water or air does not penetrate through that.

Thus water or other important nutrients cannot escape the tree. Harmful things from outside will not enter the tree. Also any physical damage from outside does not harm internal parts easily. The bark is strong physically and withstands pressure from outside.
I hope dis helps u...
