Plants and Roots

I found out that plants are a lot like us, all the way down to the skin. How cool is that? Plants have tissues like we do, epidermal tissue, ground tissue, and vascular tissue. The epidermal  on our bodies and epidermal tissue on plants is the same the protect bacteria and different things that do not belong. When i read about how the vascular tissue works, I thought about our blood stream, transferring blood throughout our bodies. The plants have what is called xylem and phloem that transfer water, minerals, molecules, and glucose throughout the plant, to give the plant what it need to produce whatever it needs to produce.
