On which layer of epidermis are guard cells found?
epidermis.
Why do plants have very few guard cells?
Guard cells are usually found on the underside of leaves and they are few in number in order to reduce water loss.
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
Where leaf pore guard cells found?
They are cells in the leaf epidermis, located arond the stomata. A pair of guard cells open and close each stoma (pore) for gas exchange and transpiration. They are different in shape from the rest of the epidermis cells, and unlike other epidermis cells they also contain chloroplasts.
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.
Are chloroplast present in guard cells?
Yes, chloroplasts are present in guard cells. Guard cells are specialized cells found in the epidermis of plant leaves and stems that regulate the opening and closing of stomata. Chloroplasts, which contain the green pigment chlorophyll, are responsible for photosynthesis and are necessary for the energy production needed for the opening and closing of stomata.
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
