16 Ιουν 2022 · Keratin is a strong fibrous structural protein that is a major constituent of outer coverings in vertebrates including skin, feathers, hair, and hooves. The epidermal cells have no direct blood supply; therefore, they rely on diffusion from blood capillaries in the dermis for oxygen and nutrients.
Plant tissue is divided into four different types: Meristematic tissue which is responsible for the making of new cells by mitosis. Epidermal tissue which is the outer layer of cells that cover and protect the plant. Ground tissue which has air spaces, and manufactures and stores nutrients.

The rind is usually the botanical exocarp, but the term exocarp also includes the hard cases of nuts, which are not named peels since they are not peeled off by hand or peeler, but rather shells because of their hardness.
The outer covering of the cell, the cell wall is a rigid membrane that contains cellulose (a carbohydrate that is indigestible for humans). The cell wall protects the parts inside, and the cellulose molecules in the wall provide the support and rigidity needed to maintain the cell’s three-dimensional structure.
