ADAPTATION OF PALISADE TISSUE
↳

↳
large vacuole helps
pushing chloroplast to edge of cell

chloroplasts at edge short diffusion path for carbon dioxide and absorb maximum light
↳



↳
chloroplasts can move towards light and away from intense light to avoid damage
↳
elongated & arranged to intercept maximum light
↳
closely packed to absorb maximum light
↳
large surface area for diffusion of gases
↳
moist cell surfaces for diffusion of gases
↳ cell walls thin for maximum light penetration and diffusion of gases
