Three adaptations of an average leaf are a large surface area to collect light, a thin thickness to facilitate CO2 diffusion, and a network of xylem vessels supplying water for photosynthesis.
Tre anpassningar hos ett genomsnittligt blad är stor yta för att samla ljus, tunn tjocklek för att underlätta diffusion av CO2, och ett nätverk av xylem som förser bladet med vatten för fotosyntes.
| Front | Give 3 adaptations to the average leaf |
|---|---|
| Back | -Large Surface Area: ensures plant collects enough light
-Thin: So CO2 does not have far to diffuse before reaching photosynthesising cells.
-Network of xylem vessels: Supplies the water for photosynthesis all around the leaf |
