how is a leaf structurally adapted for its function?

Answer 1

The blade is flat and wide allowing for the maximum surface area for sunlight absorption, the Palisade mesophyll is a thin layer of cells containing many circulating chloroplasts. They are located just under the epidermis. This allows for the maximum amount of photosynthesis to occur. The spongy mesophyll is just below the palisade layer. This area contain large spaces among the cells. This allows for gases to circulate throughout the inner part of the leaf. The veins are branched from a large bundle to smaller vessels as they branch out through the blade. The stomata are located on the lower surface to prevent excessive water loss from the leaf.

Answer 2

Leaves are generally adapted in many ways for their function. One of the most important functions of leaves is to help the plant gather enough light to photosynthesize. Being flat helps the plant collect more light to photosynthesize and so collect energy. Leaves also help collect CO2 through their stomata and so they provide a fairly large surface area in which to gather CO2 and release water through transpiration.

Answer 3

it provides itself with viens which branches out ward to bring nutrition to itself and the branch it is on will only grow to the point it can carry the water which in turn means molecules moving at an energy level opposing the gravatational pull of the earths energy molecules which provides the push nesassary to create current
