Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
The top layer of cells on a plant leaf would be classified as-
A
a tissue.​
B
a cell.​
C
an organ.
D
an organ system.​
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The epidermis is the outermost cell layer of the primary plant body. In some older works the cells of the leaf epidermis have been regarded as specialized parenchyma cells, but the established modern preference has long been to classify the epidermis as dermal tissue, whereas parenchyma is classified as ground tissue.

Detailed explanation-2: -Epidermis. The outermost layer of the leaf is the epidermis; it is present on both sides of the leaf and is called the upper and lower epidermis, respectively. Botanists call the upper side the adaxial surface (or adaxis) and the lower side the abaxial surface (or abaxis).

Detailed explanation-3: -Similar to the other organs of a plant, a leaf is comprised of three basic tissue systems, including the dermal, vascular, and ground tissue systems. These three motifs are continuous throughout an entire plant, but their properties vary significantly based upon the organ type in which they are located.

Detailed explanation-4: -The epidermis is the protective outer layer of clonally related cells covering all plant organs. It is composed of a number of specialised cell types which differentiate from the basal epidermal cell in adaptively significant frequencies and patterns.
