Plant tissue types- list the 4 types of plant tissue and their function

ground tissue- is the most common type of plant tissue found in the interior of the plant and can support, store and provide photosynthesis for the plant. Made up of 3 basic plant cells ( Parenchyma, Collenchyma, and Sclerenchyma cells)

dermal tissue- Provides cover and protection for plant. Usually found on the outside similar to skin. Epidermis cells make up the dermal layer and secrete a waxy substance called the cuticle that also protects the plant.

vascular tissue- includes xylem & phloem and helps with water and food transport. The xylem and phloem are kept together in vascular bundles running throughout the ground tissue.

meristem tissue- is growth tissue. This tissue made up of rapidly dividing cells and can be found at the tips of the roots and stems of plants. the growth areas of tips of roots and stems is called APICAL MERISTEM and the secondary growth that makes a plant wider is called LATERAL MERISTEM.

Explanation:

a fossil fuel is a fuel formed by natural processes, such as anaerobic decomposition of buried dead organisms, containing energy originating in ancient photosynthesis.[1] the age of the organisms and their resulting fossil fuels is typically millions of years, and sometimes exceeds 650 million years.[2] fossil fuels contain high percentages of carbon and include petroleum, coal, and natural gas.[3] other commonly used derivatives include kerosene and propane. fossil fuels range from volatile materials with low carbon to hydrogen ratios like methane, to liquids like petroleum, to nonvolatile materials composed of almost pure carbon, like anthracite coal. methane can be found in hydrocarbon fields either alone, associated with oil, or in the form of methane clathrates.

the theory that fossil fuels formed from the fossilized remains of dead plants by exposure to heat and pressure in the earth's crust over millions of years was first introduced by andreas libavius "in his 1597 alchemia [alchymia]" and later by mikhail lomonosov "as early as 1757 and certainly by 1763".[4] the first use of the term "fossil fuel" was by the german chemist caspar neumann, in english translation in 1759.[5]

in 2017 the world's primary energy sources consisted of petroleum (34%), coal (28%), natural gas (23%), amounting to an 85% share for fossil fuels in primary energy consumption in the world.[6] non-fossil sources in 2006 included nuclear (8.5%), hydroelectric (6.3%), and others (geothermal, solar, tidal, wind, wood, waste) amounting to 0.9%.[7] world energy consumption was growing at about 2.3% per year. in 2015 about 18% of worldwide consumption was from renewable sources.[8]
