What structures are found in the palisade layer in the mesophyll?
Lying just beneath the cuticle layer on a leaf, the palisade layer resides very close to the surface. The palisade layer is critical to growth because it is the layer of the leaf that contains the chloroplast.
Why is the waxy cuticle on a leaf?
The wax cuticle covers the upper epidermis. The main task of the cuticle is to activate cuticular transpiration in a plant. Sometimes a very shiny cuticle may be present in a plant to minimize transpiration of the plant. It basically reflects back sunlight. These are the two main functions.
In what kind of environment might you find a leaf with a very thick cuticle?
This is a reasoned guess but I would say arid regions such as the desert to prevent water loss.
Why does aluminium not corrode in the presence of air?
Aluminum very rapidly forms a thin layer of aluminum oxide, which is very stable. The layer "passivates" the surface, and it is immune to all but very strong acids or (especially) bases.
Which layer of the atmosphere is furthest from earths surface?
Cirrus clouds are very high in the atmosphere making then furthest from the Earth's surface. They are very thin and wispy in appearance.

What cells are in a layer in the top half of the leaf?
The very top of the leaf is covered by a cuticle. Directly underneath this cuticle, and underneath the whole of the upper epidermis, is the layer of chloroplasts, ont he palisade parenchyma layer.
What structure are found primarily in the palisade layer of the mesophyll?
Lying just beneath the cuticle layer on a leaf, the palisade layer resides very close to the surface. The palisade layer is critical to growth because it is the layer of the leaf that contains the chloroplast.

What are the reasons why a leaf is very thin and expanded?
so it can absorb sunlight

Where does water leave the leaf?
The water evaporates through the stomata during transpiration. The stomata are very small holes on the surface of the leaf.
Where is the cuticle on the nail located?
on the very bak part of it. Updated Answer - The cuticle is the bit where the nail meets the skin

What are 3 adaptations of leaves for photosynthesis?
1 leaves have larger surface area so they can absorb light from sun 2 they are thin so light can pass into them easily 3 the cells of leaves have chloroplast which absorb light energy
