Evaporation of water through the stomata?
That is called transpiration; plants do it.
Why are stomata's in the lower epidermis but not in the upper epidermis?
The explanation lies in how the stomata works. They regulate any gases that pass through them. When the temperature is too hot, it will close to conserve water vapor but this will block CO2 coming in also. Therefore plants don't want to have their stomata closed all the time nor opened all the time. Sunlight hits the top of the leaves and therefore the temperature and light intensity is higher on the top surface of the leaves. If many stomata were to be located on the top, the plant would loose much of its water and when the stomata closes to conserve water, it won't get as much CO2. Therefore for most plants, the stomata stay on the bottom where the temperature is a bit cooler. Also it is protected from the wind since wind can cause evaporation of water.
How do gases enter and leave plants?
In terrestrial plants, gas enters and leaves (termed "gas exchange") through cell-lined pores called "stomata." Stomata open and close in response to light and humidity, permitting oxygen, carbon dioxide and water vapor to enter and leave the plant. In most terrestrial plants, the stomata are located on the surface of the leaves, or in cacti, on the surface of the stems. In aquatic plants, gas exchange directly though the tissue surface.
Which part of the plant takes in light and air?
The leaves through their stomata take air in.
When do c4 plants keep their stomata closed?
The C4 plants tend to keep their stomata closed during the day to conserve water.
What enters through stomata in photosynthesis?
The raw materials of photosynthesis that enters the leaf through the stomates or stomata is H2O or water
Is the loss of water from plants?
Plants lose most of their water by transpiration through the stomata of the leaves.
Evaporation of water through the stomata?
That is called transpiration; plants do it.
Can leaves absorb water through their leaves?
yes
Can you give me sentence with the word stomata and transpiration?
Transpiration is the process by which plants give out water through the stomata.
What is it called when the plants give off water through their leaves?
Transpiration; it occurs through the stomata of the plants.
Why stomata absent in underwater plants?
if stomata would bepresent in underwater plants water will enter through the stomata fill the plant. Hence their is no Stomata in underwater plants.
What is it called when plants lose water through its leaves?
transpiration
The process by which plants release water vapor into the through the stomata?
Stomatal transpiration
Why does water diffuse out through the stomata?
the gas exchange through stomata because it gives more gas to the plants and to the people that breathe in (NOW SATISFIED)
Does the stomata close during drought?
The stomata will mostly close during drought. The stomata are responsible for the storage of water in plants. The opening and closing of the stomata regulates the amount of water in plants.
How can plants benefit from having stomata only on the lower epidermi?
Water can enter easily on the bottom of the leaf. Going through the vascular veins and entering through the stomata, water travels through the leaf in the process of photosynthesis.
