  2. Palisade cell - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Palisade_cell

    Diagram of the internal structure of a leaf. Palisade cell, or palisade mesophyll cell are plant cells located inside the mesophyll of most green leaves.They are vertically elongated and are stacked side by side, in contrast to the irregular and loosely arranged spongy mesophyll cells beneath them.

  3. Ground tissue - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ground_tissue

    Parenchyma cells have a variety of functions: In leaves, they form two layers of mesophyll cells immediately beneath the epidermis of the leaf, that are responsible for photosynthesis and the exchange of gases. [2] These layers are called the palisade parenchyma and spongy mesophyll. Palisade parenchyma cells can be either cuboidal or elongated.

    I randomly found this image, and think it is a very simple and clear diagram. It was designed by DynaBlast, and is used in Leaf and Palisade cell. Nominate and support. - BRIAN 0918 14:04, 24 August 2006 (UTC) Abstain - It reminds me of the drawings they had us draw in high school. Very encyclopedic and useful to wikipedia but I don't think it ...

  6. Plant anatomy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plant_anatomy

    Plant anatomy or phytotomy is the general term for the study of the internal structure of plants.Originally, it included plant morphology, the description of the physical form and external structure of plants, but since the mid-20th century, plant anatomy has been considered a separate field referring only to internal plant structure.

  7. Glossary of leaf morphology - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glossary_of_leaf_morphology

    Chart illustrating leaf morphology terms. The following terms are used to describe leaf morphology in the description and taxonomy of plants. Leaves may be simple (that is, the leaf blade or 'lamina' is undivided) or compound (that is, the leaf blade is divided into two or more leaflets). [1]

    en.wikipedia.org/.../Leaf_Morphology_Chart

    Chart illustrating 61 morphological terms describing leaf shape, margins and venation. While Diliff's mega-panoramas are a hard act to follow, I thought I would throw the metaphorical hat into the ring with this illustration. I created it with the desire to make a richly encyclopedic image/poster with lots of information about leaf morphology.

  9. Epidermis (botany) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Epidermis_(botany)

    The epidermis is the outermost cell layer of the primary plant body. In some older works the cells of the leaf epidermis have been regarded as specialized parenchyma cells, [1] but the established modern preference has long been to classify the epidermis as dermal tissue, [2] whereas parenchyma is classified as ground tissue.
