Dermal Tissue
Dermal tissue explained in an easy to understand way:
Imagine trying to protect your smartphone from scratches and drops without a case. Just like a phone case shields your device from external harm, the dermal tissue serves as the protective outer covering for plants and animals. In this analogy, the smartphone represents the delicate inner parts of a plant or animal, while the dermal tissue is akin to the phone case, providing a barrier against physical damage and environmental stress.
