How is cork tissue formed?

Cork tissue is formed from the outer layer of the cork oak tree, primarily through the activity of cork cambium, a type of lateral meristem. This cambium produces cork cells, which are dead, hollow cells filled with air, providing insulation and protection. These cells are rich in suberin, a waxy substance that helps prevent water loss and protects against pests and diseases. Over time, layers of cork cells accumulate, forming the characteristic bark of the tree.
