Why are mesophyll cells often called chlorenchyma?

Mesophyll cells are often called chlorenchyma because they are specialized plant cells responsible for photosynthesis. These cells contain numerous chloroplasts, giving them a green color due to the presence of chlorophyll. Chlorenchyma is important for capturing sunlight and converting it into chemical energy for the plant.

What is the difference between aerenchyma and chlorenchyma?

Chrolenchyma 1) In leaves and tender stems, parenchyma cells may contain chloroplast and in such case a parenchyma is called chlorenchyma. Aerenchyma 1) In aquatic plants, fairly large air cavities are present between the parenchyma cells; such a parenchyma is called aerenchyma.


What type of tissue surrounds the chloroplasts and the xylem and phloem in the leaves?

The chloroplasts in leaves are surrounded by a double membrane called the chloroplast envelope. Xylem and phloem in leaves are surrounded by a layer of parenchyma cells, which provide support and protection to these vascular tissues.
