What cells form palisade tissue?
The cells that form palisade tissue are the two upper layers of mesophyll cells, the cells that contain many chloroplasts to maximise photosynthesis.
What cells have chloroplasts filled with chlorophyll?
Plant Cell
What does a palisade leaf cell do?
Palisade cells are cells found within the mesophyll in leaves of dicotyledonous plants. They contain chloroplasts, which convert the energy stored in photons to chemical energy through photosynthesis, which is made up of two main stages; the light-dependent reactions and light-independent reactions. The cylindrical shape of palisade cells allows a large amount of light to be absorbed by the chloroplasts.
In what type of cells do choloroplast take place?
Chloroplasts are found only in plant cells. They contain the green pigment called chlorophyll, which absorbs sunlight. The chloroplasts use the sunlight energy to make food (sugar) for the plant. Chloroplasts are found mainly in the leaf cells in plants. Cells in the top half of the leaf, called palisade cells, have many chloroplasts. Cells in the bottom half of the leaf, called spongy cells, have fewer chloroplasts. Not all plant cells contain chloroplasts. For example cells inside the stem, and root cells, usually lack chloroplasts. Also the 'skin' cells (epidermis) on the leaves do not contain chloropasts.

What is the function of a palisade cell?
Cylindrical cell lying immediately beneath the upper epidermis of a leaf. Palisade cells normally exist as one closely packed row and contain many chloroplasts. During the hours of daylight palisade cells are photosynthetic, using the energy of the sun to create carbohydrates from water and carbon dioxide.
Why do palisade cells contain so many chloroplasts?
Palisade cells contain lots of chloroplasts so they can trap a lot of light energy.
What cells form palisade tissue?
The cells that form palisade tissue are the two upper layers of mesophyll cells, the cells that contain many chloroplasts to maximise photosynthesis.
What is a green disc found in palisade cells?
The green disc found in palisade cells are called Chloroplasts.
Why do palisade cells contain so many chloropasts?
Palisade cells contain lots of chloroplasts because they are located on the side of the leaf that gets exposure to direct sunlight.
What cells have chloroplasts filled with chlorophyll?
Plant Cell
How are palisade cells specialized?
palisade cells are special for photosynthesis. photosynthesis needs a green chemical called chloroplasts. without chloroplasts the palisade cells would never be able to get sunlight and live.
What are the plant cells that contain the green pigment chlorophyll?
the palisade cell contains chloroplasts which in turn contain chlorophyll the photosynthetic pigment within plant cells.
What is the photosynthesis cell called?
the main photosynthetic cells in a leaf are the palisade cells, they contain many chloroplasts which actually carry out photosynthesis.
What substances are produced in palisade cells but not xylem cells?
Chloroplasts
Where in the plant does photosynthesis occur?
Most photosynthesis occurs in a portion of the leaf called the palisade mesophyll. Palisade cells contain chloroplasts, which convert the energy stored in photons to chemical energy through photosynthesis.
What is the funtion of palisade mesophyll?
Palisade mesophyll cells are tall and closely packed to absorb maximum light. They contain many chloroplasts. Most photosynthesis takes place in the palisade cells. Spongy mesophyll also captures light and makes food.
Where are chloroplasts located?
Chloroplasts are located in the palisade cells of the plant. Within these cells they are found within cytoplasm.
