Moss leaves typically appear to have one to two cell layers. The outer layer consists of a single layer of cells, while some moss species may have a second layer of cells beneath it. This simple structure helps mosses efficiently absorb water and nutrients directly from their environment. Overall, moss leaves are relatively thin and lack the complexity found in higher plants.
Moss is typically one cell thick. It is composed of simple, non-vascular plants that lack a complex structure like other plant types. This allows for easy gas exchange and absorption of water and nutrients directly through their thin layer of cells.
Palisade mesophyll... because that is where the energy from the sun is trapped, therefore the plant needs to have many chloroplasts in order to capture the light energy. The palisade cells are long and wide in order to increase the surface area of contact with the sun..
Palisade most likely is refering to the Palisade Mesophyl, which is a tissue layer within a leaf, it sits below the epidermis layer (which is the outermost layer on top of a broad leaf) and contains chloroplasts. Below it is the Spongy mesophyl. Its called Pallisade because when viewed in cross-section, the cells line up next to each other to look like a Palisade fence.
No, a leaf is not a cell. A leaf is an organ of a plant that is made up of multiple types of cells, including stomatal cells, epidermal cells, and chloroplast-containing cells. Cells are the basic structural and functional units of living organisms, including plants like leaves.

You have asked "how many cell layers are there in an Elodea cell". Obviously a cell cannot contain layers of cells so your original question is nonsense. What you should have asked is "how many cell layers are there in an Elodea leaf?". Read it again. Think about it. Think until it hurts then think some more. It's not my fault you can't see them. If you have as much trouble seeing what's there as you seem to have reading what you've written I'm not surprised. The way to see two layers of cells is to focus on one layer and then change the focus so that the other layer comes into view. To show there are two layers by continually altering the focus in ONE direction only you should be able to move through the sequence:- no layer in focus > one layer in focus > other layer in focus > no layer in focus
