tessuto parenchimatico esterno, disposto subito sotto l'epidermide nella struttura primaria del fusto

AI overview

Bark is the protective outer layer of a tree or woody plant, consisting of dead outer tissue and living inner tissue that contains the plant's food-conducting vessels. It matters because it shields the tree from damage, disease, and environmental stress while allowing the living inner bark to transport nutrients throughout the plant.
