Because it contains air spaces which help regulate gas exchange in leaves and because most of the chloroplast are located in the palisade layer, it is here where the
photosynthesis mainly takes place.

∙ 11y agoIn dorsiventral leaves of most of dicots it is differentiated in to palisade on upper side and spongy parenchyma on the lower side, but in monocots it remains undifferentiated and such leaves are called isobilateral.

What is beneath the palisade layer of a leaf?
It is the spongy layer inside plants.
What is do you call the green material in the palisade layer and spongy layer?
chlorophyll
What are th four layers of cells found on plants?
This answer refers to the cell layers of a plant leaf: There's the outer cuticle, the upper epidermis, the palisade mesophyll cell, the bundle sheath cell (containing xylem and phloem) surrounded by spongy mesophyll cells and then the lower epidermis. Not sure if this helps...
What does the spongy layer of a privet leaf do?
Spongy Layer - A layer of the mesophyll. The spongy layer consists of chloroplasts and parenchyma cells, and relatively large intercellular spaces. It is far less ordered than the palisade layer, and the intercellular spaces are important in gas exchange and transpiration.
What Is the dfference between paliside and spongy?
The palisade layer of cells is tightly packed, like a brick wall, and contains the greatest concentration of chloroplasts in the leaf. The spongy mesophyll is loosely packed, containing many air spaces between the cells. The mesophyll contains vascular bundles and fewer chloroplasts than the palisade. Simply put, the palisade's main purpose is photosynthesis, and the spongy's gas exchange.
What is beneath the palisade layer of a leaf?
It is the spongy layer inside plants.
Is the spongy layer beneath the palisade layer?
Yes
What layers of the plant contain chloroplast?
The palisade layer and the spongy layer.
What two layers of the plant contain chloroplasts?
The palisade layer and the spongy layer.
What is do you call the green material in the palisade layer and spongy layer?
chlorophyll
What is a layer of cells that lies below the palisade layer and has many air spaces?
Spongy Layer
What layer in a leaf contains the most chloroplasts?
The leaf layer containin chloroplasts is teh Spongy Mesophyll
What layer carries out photosynthesis?

Why does the palisade layer of a leaf produce more food than the spongy layer?
The palisade layer contains more chloroplasts than the spongy layer and therefore photosynthesises more. Photosynthesis is the plants process of making energy and so the palaside layer makes more food (glucose) than any other layer.
What are the cell structures that are needed for photosynthesis and the cell structures that are needed for cellular respiration?
the palisade layer, spongy layer
