1. Parts of the leaf

Key Concepts & Definitions

  • Epidermis: Acts as protective skin cells for the leaf, providing a barrier against damage and evaporation.
  • Palisade tissue layer: The primary site of photosynthesis, composed of tightly packed cells that contain chloroplasts.
  • Spongy Tissue Cells: Located beneath the palisade layer, these cells facilitate gas exchange within the leaf.
  • Stomata: Pores on the leaf surface that allow the exit and entry of gases, regulated by guard cells.
  • Xylem: Transports water and minerals upward through the leaf, supporting photosynthesis and other functions.
  • Phloem: Transports sugars and nutrients throughout the plant, distributing energy produced in photosynthesis.

Parts of the leaf

Epidermis, palisade, spongy tissue, stomata, xylem, phloem.

Organizational levels

Cell, tissue, organ, system.

Unicellular vs multicellular

Multicellular have specialized cells; unicellular are single-celled.

Photosynthesis equation

6CO₂ + 6H₂O → C₆H₁₂O₆ + 6O₂.

Cellular respiration equation

C₆H₁₂O₆ + 6O₂ → 6CO₂ + 6H₂O + ATP.

Xylem — function?

Transports water and minerals upward.
