what keeps The leaf from losing too much water from evaporation?
pls tell me
Keeps a leaf from losing too much water from evaporation?
Transpiration is controlled by stomata.
What keeps a leaf from losing too much water from evaporation?
Transpiration is controlled by stomata.
What is dehydration of leafy vegetables?
evaporation of water from the leaf surface
What is the cuticle in a leaf?
The cuticle is a waxy covering on the leaves of plants. It is produced by the upper epidermis, which is like the skin of a leaf. Its function is to protect the leaf from water loss through evaporation. Hope this helps!
How is evaporation linked to transpiration?
Evaporation of water through stomata or cuticle of leaf epidermis is called transpiration.
What is the opening on the underside of a leaf that prevents water from evaporating?
Opening/closing of leaf pores (stoma) has the purpose to control evaporation.
What is the protective substance that restricts water loss from a leaf?
There is a waxy layer called the cuticle that reduces evaporation from the leaf. It is produced by the epidermal cells of the leaf.
Which process makes the water potential in a leaf more negative?
A.The pressure placed on the leaf by the cuticleB.The evaporation of water from mesophyll cellsC.The movement of water into the leaf by root pressureD.The increased K+ pumped out of guard cellsE.The movement of water from the veins into the leaf
What does the waxy cutical do inside a leaf?
The purpose of the waxy outer layer of a leaf, which is called a cuticle, is to keep the leaf from losing water inside the leaf. Plants that live in the water do not have this problem, so they have no cuticle.
What are the harmful effects in evaporation?
Evaporation during summers leads to drought. During the process of evaporation soil salts move upward making the soil more saline and alkaline, which affect the plant growth. Evaporation of water from plant's leaf (transpiration) leads to wilting if the water lost by evaporation is not compensated by the process of absorption of water by the roots.
How leaves cool the tree?
leaf of a tree have water on them always and when evaporation takes place it will cool the plant
