A new set of GCSE Biology leaf cross section diagrams showing the internal structure of a typical leaf. Designed for easy use in science lessons, worksheets and presentations.
The diagrams show the main structures of a leaf, including the upper and lower cuticles, upper and lower epidermis, palisade mesophyll, spongy mesophyll, vascular bundle, xylem, phloem, stomata and guard cells.
