mesophyll. (Science: plant biology) tissue found in the interior of leaves, made up of photosynthetic (parenchyma) cells, also called chlorenchyma cells. Consists of relatively large, highly vacuolated cells, with many chloroplasts.

What is mesophyll cell Class 10?

Mesophyll cells are large spaces within the leaf that allow carbon dioxide to move freely. Mesophyll, which possesses chloroplast and carries out photosynthesis, is made up of Parenchyma.

What is the function mesophyll cells in stomata?

Stomatal pores on the leaf surface and a porous leaf mesophyll are both prerequisites for effective plant gas exchange for photosynthesis and transpiration. Their development must be coordinated to ensure continuity of air passages (Fig. 1a) and to optimise the potential for efficient leaf gas exchange (Fig. 1b).
