"Stoma" comes from Greek, meaning: mouth. It usually indicates openings, sometimes other than mouths.
A stoma is a surgically created opening on the abdomen which allows stool or urine to exit the body.
Stoma is also the name for small openings on the underside of leaves that facilitate transpiration.

What cell in a leaf are like a balloon?
The guard cell of stomata look like a balloon when it is turgid. Two such cells form the pore of the stomata. When both guard cells of a stomata are deflated by exo-osmosis the stomatal pore is closed.
What is the small opening under a leaf called?

Do humans have stomata?
No, humans do not have stomata. Stomata are microscopic pores found on the surface of plant leaves and stems that are used for gas exchange and transpiration. Humans have lungs for gas exchange and do not require stomata for this purpose.

What does the stomata do?
The stomata is on petals and leaves of plants, and they regulate and help gases like CO2 water vapor and O2 move rapidly in and out. They look like a pair of lips; "stomata" means "mouth" in Greek. Water that is accumulated to the leaves are released into the atmosphere. I am only 12 answering this question....:))))
How do gases enter and escape from leaves?
Gases enter and exit a leaf through stomata. These are openings in the epidermis which are regulated by guard cells. Guard cells decide which gases can go in and out. The gas that goes in is carbon dioxide and the gas that goes out it oxygen.
What are not examples of stomata plants?
Plants without stomata include mosses, liverworts, hornworts, and algae. These plants lack true leaves and therefore do not have specialized structures like stomata for gas exchange.
What is the openings on the underside of leaves?
stomata =Specialized passages through the cuticle that enable plants to exchange gases.
Is stomata and stoma the same thing?
Stroma is a fluid that is present in the chloroplast. They are like the cytoplasm of the chloroplast. Stomata is plural for Stomate, which is a pore in leaves that allows Carbon Dioxide in, and Oxygen out; It functions as a gas exchange pore.
What is the small opening under a leaf called?

What is singular form of stomata?
Stomata is already the plural form of stoma.
Which land plant group does stomata not present itself?
A stomata, or stoma, is found in the leaves and stems of plants and is like a pore that allows for gas exchange. Liverworts, typically regarded as a weed, can be found in dry or arctic areas and does not possess a stomata.
Does the cactus have a stomata?
Yes. The cacti may practice a delayed form of photosynthesis because they must close their stomata in the daytime but they, like all other plants, must take in carbon dioxide and release oxygen and water through those stomata.
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.
