Plant anatomy

Plant anatomy or phytotomy is the study of the internal structure of plants.^[1] This is usually considered distinct from plant morphology,^[1] which is the study of the external parts of plants. Plant anatomy is usually studied with a microscope.^[2]

Plant anatomy is the study of plant cells and tissues. Epidermis, pith, phloem, and cortex are plant tissues. Vascular bundles are a type of vascular tissue that contains phloem and other cells.
