Detailed Solution

The large cells around the vascular bundles of the C4 pathway plants are called bundle sheath cells. The leaves which have such anatomy are said to have ‘Kranz’ anatomy. The bundle sheath cells may form several layers around the vascular bundles; they are characterized by having numerous chloroplasts, thick walls impervious to gaseous exchange, and no intercellular spaces.
