  2. Palisade cell - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Palisade_cell

    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. Palisade cells are responsible for carrying out the majority of the photosynthesis in a ...

  3. Gas exchange - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gas_exchange

    Gas exchange is the physical process by which gases move passively by diffusion across a surface. For example, this surface might be the air/water interface of a water body, the surface of a gas bubble in a liquid, a gas-permeable membrane, or a biological membrane that forms the boundary between an organism and its extracellular environment.

  4. Palisade (pathology) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Palisade_(pathology)

    In histopathology, a palisade is a single layer of relatively long cells, arranged loosely perpendicular to a surface and parallel to each other. [1] A rosette is a palisade in a halo or spoke-and-wheel arrangement, surrounding a central core or hub. [ 2 ]

  5. Allenbya collinsonae - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Allenbya_collinsonae

    The seed coat consists of an out palisade cell layer, an inner layer of integument cells and a middle layer of one to two cells. The outer palisade cells are "sinuous" in shape, undulating approximately four to ten times from outer to inner cell ends and have thickened cell walls. The middle layer of cells are thin walled, between one and two ...

  6. Spongy tissue - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spongy_tissue

    Spongy tissue is a type of tissue found both in plants and animals.. In plants, it is part of the mesophyll, where it forms a layer next to the palisade cells in the leaf.The spongy mesophyll's function is to allow for the interchange of gases (CO 2) that are needed for photosynthesis.

  7. BBC Bitesize - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BBC_Bitesize

    GCSE Bitesize was launched in January 1998, covering seven subjects. For each subject, a one- or two-hour long TV programme would be broadcast overnight in the BBC Learning Zone block, and supporting material was available in books and on the BBC website. At the time, only around 9% of UK households had access to the internet at home.

    Cajsa Lisa Anderson et al. (2005) wrote: "synapomorphic characters that link the fossils seeds [of P. splendens] to extant Aldrovanda include hard testa with an outer epidermis of palisade cells and with a smooth, strongly reflecting surface, short micropylar neck, and extruding, pointed chalazal area".
