This Concept Map, created with IHMC CmapTools, has information related to: Leaf Structure_16, 33, upper epidermis has a thick waxy cuticle, waxy cuticle prevent wilting of Leaves, upper epidermis protects palisade layer, spongy mesophyll loosely packed, resulting large intercellular spaces, spongy mesophyll fewer chloroplasts, palisade layer has abundant chloroplasts, lower epidermis has abundant stomata, lower epidermis to regulate gaseous exchange and water loss, waxy cuticle allows light to focus on palisade layer, waxy cuticle protects Leaves, spongy mesophyll connected to, for fast diffusion of gases stomata, one cell thick is upper epidermis, upper epidermis has fewer stomata, palisade layer thin cell wall for fast diffusion of gases, one cell thick is lower epidermis
