Gas exchange happens in the spongy mesophyll tissue of the leaf. Spongy mesophyll cells are covered by a thin layer of water and loosely packed. When the plant is photosynthesising during the day, these features allow carbon dioxide to diffuse into the spongy mesophyll cells, and oxygen to diffuse out of it.pongy mesophyll cells are covered by a thin layer of water and loosely packed.

In biometrics and forensic science, minutiae are major features of a fingerprint, using which comparisons of one print with another can be made. Minutiae include: 1  Ridge ending â the abrupt end of a ridge. 2  Ridge bifurcation â a single ridge that divides into two ridges. 3  Short ridge, or independent ridge â a ridge that commences, travels a short distance and then ends.
the long fusiform muscle of the upper arm on the anterior surface of the humerus, arising in two heads from the scapula. It flexes the arm and the forearm and supinates the hand. Also called biceps, biceps flexor cubiti. Compare brachialis, triceps brachii.iceps brachii. is a large fusiform muscle lying on the cranial surface of the humerus. Its function is to flex the elbow and integrate the actions of the shoulder and elbow. A medial displacement of the tendon of origin has been reported in dogs, causing a weight-bearing lameness.
