What happens when water enters guard cells?
When water enters the guard cells of a plant, they become turgid and swell up, causing the stoma to open. This allows for gas exchange to occur in the leaf, facilitating photosynthesis. Conversely, when water is lost from the guard cells, they become flaccid, leading to stoma closure to prevent excessive water loss.
When a cell swells up what term is applied to its condition?
When a cell swells up, the term applied to its condition is "cellular swelling" or "cellular edema." This can occur due to various reasons such as excessive water intake or impaired ion transport.
What is the process through which water is lost through the plant's stoma?
Evaporation. Water molecules have a cohesive property, so as water molecules closest to the stoma evaporate and diffuse through the stoma they will pull the water molecules from the xylem behind them. These water molecules will evaporate too and draw more water up.
Why does your skin get wrinkly in water due to osmosis?
When your skin is in water for a long time, the outer layer absorbs water and swells up. This causes the skin to wrinkle due to osmosis, where water moves from an area of low concentration to an area of high concentration.
What is the function of guard cells in regulating gas exchange in a leaf?
Guard cells are on the surface of plant leaves and surround each stomata (small pores all over the leaf surface). Stomata control the release of gases, including water vapor. During a drought plants occasionally look droopy but still alive, the plant looks wilted because its guard cells are preventing loss of moisture from the stoma (plural of stomata). When defining stomata, it is made of two parts: the pore (opening) itself, and the (2) guard cells around it.
What happens after you bite your tongue?
It swells up.
What happens if you lack iodine?
I believe a gland in your throat swells up, like that of Mona Lisa's.
What happens if a guinea pigs finger swells up?
BRING IT TO THE DOCTOR'S it's the best thing to do if that happens it could be in a lot of pain
Name the cell that makes up the stoma?
Guard cells make up the stoma
What is the cell that makes up the stoma?
The cells that make up the stoma are known as guard cells. These specialized cells are responsible for regulating the opening and closing of the stomata to control gas exchange and water loss in plants.
What happens if a pierced lip swells up five days after getting it pierced?
It means it's infected!
What happens when you eat a toad?
According to reasonable information when you eat a toad your stomach swells up and has a chemical reaction.
What happens when you mix sawdust and water?
When sawdust is mixed with water, the sawdust absorbs the water and swells up. This can result in the formation of a thick paste or slurry. Over time, the sawdust can break down and decompose in the water, potentially releasing nutrients and organic matter.

A raisin is kept in water for some time it swells up which phenomenon is being demonstrated by this experiment?
Osmosis
Why cannot transpiration take place in dark?
the sun has to heat up the water in the plants so it can evaporate and exit the stoma
