- Bean-shaped sclerenchyma cells in the epidermis; swell and shrink by osmosis to open and close stomata. Stomata (singular stoma) are tiny pores in the epidermis of a plant leaf that controls transpiration and gas exchange with the air.

- A portion of ground tissue that is the inner most layer of a cortex and has a casparian strip in its anticlinal cell walls.
- Tissue composed of cells with unevenly thickened walls.
- Long tubular cell peculiar to xylem
- Tissue composed of thick-walled cells containing lignin for strength and support
Down
- In animals, outer layer of skin that consists mainly of epithelial cells and lacks nerve endings and blood vessels; in plants, outer layer of dermal tissue.
