Below the cuticle is the epidermis. On the top of the leaf, this is known as the upper epidermis. This is a single layer of cells found directly below the cuticle. It helps protect the leaf by aiding in preventing water loss and providing an extra layer between the outside and inside of the leaf.he cuticle and upper epidermis provide protection for the plant. Below that is the palisade layer, which is the location of photosynthesis within the leaf. Below the palisade layer is the spongy layer, which contains cells that are more spread out, allowing for air pockets.
