Match the words on the left with their definition on the right. 1 . stomata the layer within the leaf that has many holes and spaces for gases to exchange 2 . palisade layer the layer in the leaf that is the primary spot of photosynthesis 3 . spongy layer the outer layer of cells on leaves that has a waxy coating 4 . cuticle openings that are most frequently found on the underside of a leaf 5 . epidermis the waxy protective coating on leaves

The correct answer is -

1. stomata - openings that are most frequently found on the underside of a leaf.

2. Palaside layer - the layer in the leaf that is the primary spot of photosynthesis.

3. spongy layer - the layer within the leaf that has many holes and spaces for gases to exchange.

4. cuticle - the waxy protective coating on leaves.

5. epidermis - the outer layer of cells on leaves that has a waxy coating.

Explanation:

The structure of leaves has various layers and structures in it for specific functions.

Epidermis - it is the outermost protective layer of the leaf that has a waxy coating known as the cuticle.

Cuticle - it is a waxy coating that provides protection to the plant leaves and prevents moisture to move out of the cells.

Palisade layer - it is the closely packed photosynthetic pigments chlorophyll layer known as the primary spot for photosynthesis.

Spongy layer - it is the layer that has loosely packed photosynthetic cells and allows the gaseous exchange as their many small holes and spaces.

Stomata - Stomata is the holes or openings that are most frequently found on the underside of a leaf that allows for gaseous exchange.
