Recognize the internal cellular structure of leaves. Describe how the structure facilitates photosynthesis. Describe how the structure facilitates gas exchange. Explain why leaves in autumn turn from green to yellow, orange, and red. Learning leaf anatomy is a bit like taking a sandwich apart and seeing what’s inside.
24 paź 2024 · The main function of a leaf is to produce food for the plant by photosynthesis. Chlorophyll, the substance that gives plants their characteristic green colour, absorbs light energy. The internal structure of the leaf is protected by the leaf epidermis, which is continuous with the stem epidermis.
