There are four kinds of complex tissues in plants -

1. Xylem :

Water conducting tissue
Involved in conduct of water and ions in the plant
Typically composed of non-living conductive cells and living
parenchyma cells

2. Phloem :

Food conducting tissue
Involved in transport of sucrose, other organic compounds, and some ions
Conductive cells living at functional maturity
Endwalls connect to each other via sieve-plates


3. Epidermis (Dermal Tissue) :

Outermost layer of cells of primary plant body
Generally a single layer of cells
The "skin" of the plant
Main role is protection of the plant

4. Cortex and path (Ground Tissue):

Ground tissues recognizable by location
Makes up the bulk of the plant
Diverse functions including photosynthesis, storage, and support
Pretty much, if you look at something and it isn't dermal tissue nor is it vascular tissue, it is ground tissue
