Which of the following statements is true? The spongy layer doesn't have any chlorophyll. The epidermis is the main location for photosynthesis. The cuticle slows down the loss of water in a leaf. Plants can make food without chlorophyll. PLEASE HELP ​

Answer: the cuticle slows down the rate of water loss.

Explanation: the spongy layer contains chlorophyll although few. Photosynthesis occurs in the chloroplast.

Plants need chlorophyll because it captures sunlight which helps in the splitting of water molecule during photosynthesis ,thus they need it to manufacture their food.
