This Concept Map, created with IHMC CmapTools, has information related to: Leaf Structure, palisade layer function main site of photosynthesis, thinner layer of waxy cuticle with abundant stomata, stomata function is to regulate water loss from the leaves, lower epidermis structure 1-cell thick, large intercellular spaces contain fewer chloroplast, spongy layer structure large intercellular spaces, spongy layer function carry out photosynthesis, palisade layer structure long,cylindrical,thin-wall cells, upper epidermis structure fewer stomata, palisade layer structure 1-2 layers of closely packed, upper epidermis structure 1-cell thick layer, Leaf Structure consist of lower epidermis, upper epidermis covered by waxy cuticle, main site of photosynthesis due to high concentration of chloroplast, palisade layer function thin cell wall, lower epidermis structure thinner layer of waxy cuticle, long,cylindrical,thin-wall cells with abundant chloroplast, Leaf Structure consist of upper epidermis, waxy cuticle function being transparent, stomata for rapid diffusion of oxygen & carbon dioxide
