0 a strong fence made out of wooden or iron poles that is used to protect people or a place from being attacked
1 a long row of cliffs (= high area of rock with a steep side)
In some regions the focus was up to 6-11 cells deep and the membranes of adjacent palisading cells were closely apposed.
Arm in arm, the animal protesters broke down the palisades and forced open the cages, releasing those who had been born in captivity and were ignorant of freedom.
He reported having observed that those elements consisted of a fully transparent, strongly refracting substance, and that they were shaped like palisades and had smooth surfaces.
A clear difference in the formation of the layer 6 palisades, coincident with the deepest recordings made in the middle medial bank of the suprasylvian sulcus, was observed.
Also, the shade plants tended to have 1-2 cell layers in the palisade mesophyll compared with 2-3 layers in sun plants.
The palisade parenchyma is interpreted as a barrier to desiccation of the acorn and may have a photosynthetic function during the formation of the fruit.
The palisade cells also show adaptations for gaseous exchange.
Hatching occurs within 7-12 days through the egg side in contact with the leaf surface, and neonates initiate the feeding on the palisade parenchyma.
