Question

Mesophyll tissue is not differentiated into palisade tissue and spongy tissue in:

• A. Leaf of Eucalyptus
• B. Leaf of Nerium
• C. Leaf of maize
• D. All of the above

Answer 1

The correct option is C Leaf of maize

In dicot plants, leaves are dorsiventral with mesophyll parenchyma differentiated into two regions-upper-palisade, lower-spongy. For example, leaf of Eucalyptus and Nerium.
On the other hand in monocot plants, leaves are isobilateral with mesophyll parenchyma being undifferentiated having only spongy parenchyma. For example, leaf of maize.
