Question
- where in the leaf would you expect to see photosynthesis occur? a. intercellular spaces b. upper epidermis c. cuticle d. stomata e. palisade mesophyll
Brief Explanations
Photosynthesis occurs in cells containing chloroplasts. The palisade mesophyll layer of the leaf has a high - concentration of chloroplasts and is the main site for photosynthesis. Intercellular spaces are for gas exchange, the upper epidermis protects the leaf, the cuticle is a waxy layer for water - loss prevention, and stomata are for gas exchange, not the main site of photosynthesis.
