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.
Guard cells , spongy mesophyll layer and upper epidemic
yes
The mesophyll is located between the upper and lower epidermis.
Trap plenty of air in the air spaces
in between the spongy mesophyll cells, there are air spaces. this allows faster diffusion of CO2 into the leaf. the thin film of moisture on the spongy mesophyll evaporates in the air spaces in the process of transpiration, thus helped in transpiration pull. without the spongy mesophyll being loosely arranged, there would not be air spaces.
The palisade mesophyll is superior to the spongy mesophyll (in most leaves) which aids in photosynthesis, but also serves a "sun block" to the more sensitive cells the spongy mesophyll.

yes :)

Guard cells , spongy mesophyll layer and upper epidemic
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 would be the advantages to having no chloroplasts in the cells of the spongy mesophyll? Fewer chloroplasts in the spongy mesophyll because most of the light energy is absorbed by the chloroplasts of the palisade mesophyll. ... They waxy cuticle keeps water inside the leaf cells.
Hydrophytes such as water lilies have lots of air in their spongy mesophyll, this helps the leaves float on the top of the water by increasing the buoyancy of the leaf. In general the air spaces in the spongy mesophyll of a leaf are useful for the circulation of gases, taking in CO2 and releasing O2 as well as the movement of water vapor, due to the process of transpiration.
it is TRUE
yes
The mesophyll is located between the upper and lower epidermis.
