What cells of the epidermis control sizes of stomata?
Guard cellsby- kara linwood
Do all plants have guard cells?
yes all plants have guard cells because if there's a plant that don't have guard cells the stomatal pores will not open neither close
How are the stomata controlled?
The stomata are controlled by two epidermal cells called guard cells. When water flows in, the guard cells swell up and closes the stomata. When the water leaves, it becomes flaccid and opens the stomata.
What is the difference between a guard cell and other cells?
Answer1. Guard cells have chloroplast, epidermal cells do not have.2. Guard cells are much smaller than the epidermal cells.3. The cell walls of guard cells are not uniform, inner walls are thicker than the outer walls. epidermal cells are unformly thin.
What are pores surrounded by guard cells in the epidermis of a leaf?
Stomata are pores surrounded by the guard cells.
What cells guard the opening and closing of the stomata?
Stomatal pores in plants regulate the amount of water and solutes within them by opening and closing their guard cells using osmotic pressure. Guard cells and adjacent subsidiary cells are involved in opening and closing of stomata.
Which structure controls transpiration?
guard cells
How does stomata open?
The stomata's function is to allow gas exchange with the surrounding air, so that the plant can intake carbon dioxide and oxygen. Stomatal opening is favored when there is plentiful water and moderate temperatures. Abscissic acid, a plant hormone, acts on the guard cells to open and close stomata. Some plants are even genetically engineered with a mutated era gene, which makes them more sensitive to abscissic acid and more prone to the opening and closing of guard cells. When guard cells are full of water, they stretch away from each other and the stomata are open. When guard cells are limp, they fall on each other and the stomata are closed. Potassium ions play a role in the opening and closing of stomata by changing the concentration of ions in the guard cells. When the potassium ions are in the guard cells, water also flows in the guard cells because of osmosis and the stomata open. When the potassium ions are out of the guard cells, water also flows out of the guard cells because of osmosis and the stomata close.
What is the of guard cells?
the function of guard cells are that they control the opening and closing of the stoma
What are the names of the specialized cells that control the aperture of the hole of the stomata?
These are called the guard cells.
How is the opening and closing of stomata controlled?
The guard cells controll the opening and closing of the statoma!
What the function of guard cells?
the function of guard cells are that they control the opening and closing of the stoma
Stomata open and close in response to pressure within?
guard cells
Can guard cells carry out photosynthesis?
No Guard cells are cells that close when there is dry weather, preventing the leaf from becoming dehydrated
