Leaf Structure Under the Microscope
Like any other multicellular living thing, leaf structure is made up of layers of cells. Viewing the leaf under the microscope shows different typesof cells that serve various functions. Using a microscope, it's possible toview and identify these cells and how they are arranged (epidermal cells,spongy cells etc). To … See more
