• They are found When the leaves and the plants are in their primary stages and immature.

• They occur as single layer cell.

• They are living cell

• They occur during the primary and secondary growth in plants

Cork cells-

• They cover only the stem and root of the plant after secondary growth.

• They occur when most of the words in the plants are grown up.
