Why are leaves greens?
Leaves are green because the cells form which they are made contain structures called chloroplasts which are filled with a green coloured chemical called chlorophyll. Chlorophyll absorbs all the light which is not green and uses the energy in this light to make sugars. Thus the green leaves of plants make the food that plants need to grow (and which animals get when they eat plants).
In which part plant trap solar energy?
Plants trap solar energy in their leaves through a process called photosynthesis. Photosynthesis occurs in specialized cells within the leaves called chloroplasts, which contain chlorophyll, the pigment that captures sunlight and converts it into chemical energy for the plant to use.
What are holes in leaves surrounded by guard cells called?
stomata
What kind of cells made it diffucult to tear fern leaves from the plant?
Fern leaves are held tightly to the plant by specialized cells called sclerenchyma cells. These cells have thick, rigid cell walls containing a substance called lignin which provides strength and resistance to tearing. This makes it difficult to tear fern leaves from the plant.
What is the main photosynthetic structure of the plant?
Chloroplasts are the structures used for photosynthesis. Chloroplasts are organelles found in plant cells and algae (plantlike protists). Chloroplasts contain a green pigment called chlorophyll, which do the chemical processes of photosynthesis. Chlorophyll is what gives leaves their green color.
Is leaves producing oxygen physical or chemical?
The process of leaves producing oxygen is a physical and chemical process. It involves photosynthesis which is a chemical reaction that converts sunlight, water, and carbon dioxide into glucose and oxygen. This process occurs in the chloroplasts of plant cells.
What are the holes in leaves surrounded by guard cells?
StomataThe holes in leaves surrounded by guard cells are called stomata. These stomata help regulate the water that goes into and out of the plant.
What are the chemical changes in the cells of an organism called?
nuclear reaction
Does leaves have cells?
Leaves are part of plants and plants have cells so leaves also have cells.
What chemical reaction is taking place in the green organelles in plant cells?
This chemical reaction is called photosynthesis.
Cells in the leaves of plants contain specialized structures called chloroplasts how are chloroplasts related to the function of leaf cells?
Feature
Molecules which speed up chemical reactions in cells are called what?
Enzymes
