discuss the V.s. of monocot leaf

V.S of monocot leaf:
The vertical section of monocotyledonous leaf shows three main parts epidermis, mesophyll and vascular bundles. Epidermis covers both upper (adaxial surface) and lower (abaxial surface). Stomata are present on both sides of epidermis. Mesoderm is not diffferentiated into palisade and spongy parenchyma. Leaves have parallel venation. Bulliform cells (modified epidermal cells) are present along the vein which absorb water and make the cells turgid.
