Answer:

Underneath the leaf's epidermis is the ground tissue. This is divided into the palisade mesophyll and spongy mesophyll. The spongy mesophyll

allows for the gases that entered through the stomata to be exchanged during photosynthesis. The palisade mesophyll is where the majority of

photosynthesis takes place.
