To carry out photosynthesis as the cells contain chloroplasts and the organelles perform photosynthesis. It has a waxy cuticle which is impermeable to water, so the water passes out of the leaves as water vapour.

∙ 10y agoIt has many chloroplasts meaning the cells can perform photosynthesis more efectivly

∙ 11y agoMost of the interior of the leaf between the upper and lower layers of epidermis is a parenchyma (ground tissue) or chlorenchyma tissue called the mesophyll (Greek for "middle leaf"). Thisassimilation tissue is the primary location of photosynthesis in the plant. The products of photosynthesis are called "assimilates".

What is the function of spongey mesophyll in a leaf?
allows for the interchange of gases
Does a leaf mesophyll have a cytoplasm?
Yes, a leaf mesophyll has a cytoplasm.
What is the importance of mesophyll tissue?
Mesophyll tissue is made up of parenchyma cells that lie between the upper and lower epidermis layers of a leaf. The parenchyma cells that make up this tissue are essential for photosynthesis in plants.
What is the middle layer of a leaf?
The spongy mesophyll and pallisade mosophyl layers form the middle layers of the leaf. The pallisade mesophyl contains many tightly packed cells which do photosynthesis. The spongy mesophyl contains mainly hollow space, allowing for gas exchange.
What is the function of mesophyll?
responsible for storing energy and nutrients until they can be transmitted to the veins in the leaf and sent elsewhere in the plant where they are needed
What part of the leaf has air spaces to facilitate the diffusion of gases?
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.

What is a leaf mesophyll?
A mesophyll is the inner tissue or parenchyma of a leaf, which contains many chloroplasts. The chloroplasts are organelles that perform photosynthesis.

Are spongy mesophyll in leaf?
yes :)
In which part of a leaf does photosynthesis occur?
in the stomata
Enumerate the internal parts of a leaf?
What are the internal parts of leaf
Is the nucleus in the leaf mesophyll or in the sperm?
sperm
