Tree bark is the protective outer covering of a tree, serving as a barrier against environmental threats like pests, diseases, and physical damage. It consists of multiple layers, including the outer bark (periderm) and inner bark (phloem), which help transport nutrients. The texture, thickness, and color of bark can vary significantly between species, playing a role in the tree's overall adaptation and health.
