WORKSHEET 6.7 : Photosynthesis - Leaf Structure

1. Photosynthesis is a process carried out by green plants to produce their

own food.
2. The process of photosynthesis needs light from the Sun, chlorophyll_
in the leaves, water from the soil.

3. Leaves are photosynthesis organ of plants.

4. Diagram below shows the cross section of a leaf. Label the diagram.

5. The structural adaptation of a leaf supports photosynthesis :

STRUCTURE ADAPTATION

1) Leaf Lamina  Thin and wide / (high SA/V ratio) to enable

(i) Leaf absorb sunlight
(ii) Carbon dioxide diffuse into cells easily
 Mosaic arrangement of leaves to enable leaves absorb
maximum light.

2) Leaf veins  Situated at the centre of the leaf and branched out to the
side of the leaf
 Xylem and phloem are found in the veins.
 Xylem transports water and minerals from the roots to
the leaf
 Phloem transports glucose synthesized in the leaf to all
part of the plant

3) Epidermis  Consists of upper epidermis and lower epidermis. It

serves as a transparent single layer
 Epidermal cell has no chlorophyll and therefore permits
light to penetrate into mesophyll tissues.
 Outer surface of epidermis is covered by cuticle which
is waterproof.
 It protects leaf from microorganisms and excessive loss
of water

4) Stomata  Found abundantly at the lower surface of leaf.

 Its opening is controlled by guard cells . Exchange of
oxygen and carbon dioxide gas during photosynthesis
and respiration takes place through this opening.

5) Palisade  Elongated cells with many chloroplast inside, near to

mesophyll leaf surface for more and efficient light absorbed.

6) Spongy  Irregular shape, loosely arranged beneath the palisade

mesophyll mesophyll with many air sac. It contains many
chloroplast for photosynthesis.
