Function and structure of leaf palisade cell

The main function of the palisade cell is for the chloroplasts are to be able to absorb a large amount of light for photosynthesis. they also move around in the cytoplasm in order to maximise, the amount of light absorbed.

Structure of a palisade cell
Palisade cells contain the largest number of chloroplasts per cell, which makes them the primary site of photosynthesis in the leaves of those plants that contain them, converting the in light to the chemical energy of carbohydrates. for the plant
Beneath the palisade mesophyll are the spongy mesophyll cells, which also perform photosynthesis. They are irregularly shaped cells that have many intercellular spaces that allow the passage of gases, within the plant.
