Describe the major tissues of the leaf (epidermis, photosynthetic ground tissue, xylem, and phloem) and sketch how they are arranged in a leaf cross section.
Make a labelled line diagram of the cross section of the leaf with the following labels: cuticle, adaxial epidermis, abaxial epidermis,
primary xylem, primary phloem, collenchyma, bundle sheath, vascular cambium, stomata, mesophyll that consist of palisade and
spongy parenchyma with intercellular spaces.
Describe the leaf and give its type of venation, leaf shape, leaf bases, leaf margin, and leaf apices. (Please answer the question subjectively and don't just define terms.)
