Answer:
the epidermis is formed of single contimous layered cells. It covers without any intercellular spaces and protection all parts of the plant. Small pores, called stomata, are present on the leaf, and held in exchange of gases and water. In desert plants, epidemis has a thick waxy coating of cutin, to check water loss
