- They are moist to allow gases to diffuse in solution form.
- They have large surface area such as numerous stomata and large intercellular air spaces within the mesophyll cells which increase efficiency.
- They have increased ventilation due to the presence of stomata and lenticels which are in contact with the surrounding medium.
- Mesophyll cells near the air spaces have thin walls, the thin membranes allow fast diffusion of gases.
