Leaves consist mostly of tissue called mesophyll, which is made up of loosely arranged cells with spaces between them. The spaces are filled with air, from which the cells absorb carbon dioxide and into which they expel oxygen.

The leaf layer that contains air gas is called the spongy mesophyll or spongy layer. These air-filled gaps contain the gas that the plant is using (carbon dioxide - CO2 ) and gases that the plant is expelling (oxygen - O2, and water vapor).
