A stoma is used to control gas exchange -- oxygen and carbon dioxide.
What else can I help you with?
What is the function of a stoma on a leaf?
A stoma on a leaf allows for the exchange of gases, such as oxygen and carbon dioxide, during photosynthesis and respiration. It also helps regulate water loss through transpiration.
What is the function of the guard cells in regulating gas exchange in a leaf?
The stoma opens and closes to allow gas exchange. The Guard cells are located around the stoma and regulate the opening and closing of the stoma.
How does the structure of guard cells relate to the function of guard cells?
control the size of the openings called stoma the stoma allow gases such as carbon dioxide and oxygen to move into and out of the leaf
Why plants with stoma cannot live in desserts?
A stoma is a pore found in a leaf's epidermis. This pore is used primarily for gas exchanges (carbon dioxide/oxygen), but it also has another unavoidable function. That function is decreasing the water in the leaf. The water evaporates and leaves the leaf through the stoma. In a dessert, this would be particularly harmful to the plant, as the heat would evaporate more and more of the water, which can then escape through the stomata, dehydrating the plant.
What is the opening in a leaf that allows gases to pass into and out of the leaf?
The stoma (stomata)
What is the openings in the epidermis of a leaf that let CO2 into leaves?
The stoma, or pores of a plant control all gas exchange. The stoma is found in the epidermis of the leaf.
Why are there more stoma on the bottom of the leaf?
to preserve water
What part of a plant controls evaporation?
Stoma of the leaf.
What sausage shaped cells control the size of openings that allow carbon dioxide and oxygen to move into and out of of a leaf?
The guard cells of a stoma perform this function.
What sausage-shaped cells control the size of the openings that allow carbon dioxide and oxygen to move into and out of a leaf?
The guard cells of a stoma perform this function.
What is the whole between two guard cells in a leaf called?
It's called a stoma (plural stomata) and its function is to allow carbon dioxide to enter the leaf for photosynthesis. The guard cells sre responsible for regulating the size of the stoma.
What is the openings in the epidermis of a leaf that let CO2 into the leaves?
The openings in the epidermis of a leaf that let CO2 into the leaves are called stomata. Stomata are small pores primarily located on the underside of the leaf that allow for gas exchange, including the intake of CO2 for photosynthesis and the release of oxygen.
