This layer is formed by the bundle sheath cells, which contain the chloroplasts in which the Calvin cycle occurs. Note, too, that the mesophyll cells are not separated into well-defined palisade and spongy mesophyll layers, such as you observed in the Ligustrum leaf.. Fully label the drawing of the stereoscopic view of a portion of a leaf provided. Labels should include UPPER EPIDERMIS, LOWER EPIDERMIS, PALISADE MESOPHYLL, SPONGY MESOPHYLL, VASCULAR BUNDLE (VEIN), STOMA, and GUARD CELLS.
