Question 22

Which cells are the exception to the rule that the cells of a leaf epidermis contain no chloroplasts?

  1. The upper epidermis cells facing the sun
  2. The lower epidermis cells between the pores
  3. The guard cells that surround each poreBonne réponse
  4. The palisade cells just under the epidermis

Explication

Almost every cell of the surface layer of a leaf lacks chloroplasts, and the pair of cells flanking each pore is the single exception to that pattern: those two are differently equipped because they have a different job, working the pore between them, while the rest of the layer only covers the leaf. Students who learn the rule as a flat statement about the whole surface layer then deny the exception, and the column-shaped cells beneath the surface are not part of that layer at all.
