Answer:

The ground tissue system is found within each plant organ. Within leaves, the ground tissue system consists of palisade mesophyll, which are tightly compacted cells that are the site of photosynthesis. Within plant stems, the ground tissue consists of the cortex (outer stem layer) and pith (spongy stem center).
