Text SolutionText solutionverified iconVerified

Dorsiventral leaves are found in dicots. The vertical section of a dorsiventral leaf contains three distinct parts:
[1] Epidermis:
Epidermis is present on both the upper surface (adaxial epidermis) and the lower surface (abaxial epidermis). The epidermis on the outside is covered with a thick cuticle. Abaxial epidermis bears more stomata than the adaxial epidermis.
[2] Mesophyll:
Mesophyll is a tissue of the leaf present between the adaxial and abaxial epidermises. It is differentiated into the palisade parenchyma (composed of tall, compactly-placed cells) and the spongy parenchyma (comprising oval or round, loosely-arranged cells with intercellular spaces). Mesophyll contains the chloroplasts which perform the function of photosynthesis.
[3] Vascular system:
The vascular bundles present in leaves are conjoint and closed. They are surrounded by thick layers of bundle-sheath cells.
