What else can I help you with?
What kind of cells in the leaf carry out photosynthetic activity?
spongy and pallisade parenchyma
What is the middle layer of a leaf?
The spongy mesophyll and pallisade mosophyl layers form the middle layers of the leaf. The pallisade mesophyl contains many tightly packed cells which do photosynthesis. The spongy mesophyl contains mainly hollow space, allowing for gas exchange.
What 3 kinds of leaf cells contain chloroplasts?
Palisade cells, spongy mesophyll cells, and guard cells contain chloroplasts in leaves. Palisade cells are located in the upper leaf epidermis, spongy mesophyll cells are below the palisade layer, and guard cells surround the stomata.
In which part of a leaf is a food made?
Food is made in any cell containing chloroplasts. The greatest contribution is by the pallisade cells on the upper surface of the leaf.
What part of the leaf can you find chlorophyll?
In the palisade cells, spongy cells, and guard cells.
True or false spongy mesophyll are cells in a leaf?
True. Spongy mesophyll cells are found in the leaf tissue of plants and are involved in the exchange of gases necessary for photosynthesis.
Why does the middle of the leaf (the spongy region) have loosely arranged cells?
The spaces between the spongy mesophyll cells permit gases to move around within the leaf. That is why they are loosely arranged.
What are types of mesophyll cells?
The two main types of mesophyll cells found in plant leaves are palisade mesophyll cells and spongy mesophyll cells. Palisade mesophyll cells are located in the upper layer of the leaf and are specialized for photosynthesis, while spongy mesophyll cells are found beneath the palisade layer and aid in gas exchange and the storage of nutrients.
What part of the leaf has air spaces to facilitate the diffusion of gases?
The region in the leaf that has air spaces to facilitate the movement of gasses is the mesophyll region. This region is composed of layers of cells.
What are cells between the upper and lower epidermis of the leaf called?
Mesophyll In between upper and lower epidermis of leaf is mesophyll tissue. In the dorsiventral leaves, mesophyll is divisible into upper palisade cells and lower spongy parenchyma. The palisade cells are mainly involved in photosynthesis and spongy parenchyma in gaseous exchange.
What are two structures in a plant's leaf?
Stomata and parenchyma cells, columnar ans spongy
What are two structure in a plant's leaf?
