Stomatal conductance is the speed at which water evaporates from pores in a plant, and is directly related to relative size of the stomatal apature. Basically, the higher the evaporation rate, the higher the conductance of the leaf. It must also be noted that humidity, the hydration status of the plant and light intensity are also factors that affect stomatal conductance.

What is the small opening under a leaf called?
Stomata
Specialized structures that allow gas to enter and leave leaf?
Stomata
What tiny openings on plants leaves are called?
Stomata
What are the tiny holes in plant's leaves called?
Stoma (plural stomata), they are the pores used for gas exchange.
What are the tiny holes in leaves through which carbon dioxide enters?
Stomata are present in between guard cells of green leaves.
Why is conductance G?
Conductance is an opposition of Resistance and it is denoted by G. It is given by the relationship G = 1/R . In past the unit of conductance was (mho) which is opposite to (ohm). But these days the unit of conductance is Siemens which is denoted by 'S'.
Will a fully charged new battery have a low conductance reading?
No it will have high conductance
What is the small opening under a leaf called?
Stomata
Why conductance is ignored in transmission lines?
Conductance is ignored in short circuit studies because the inductance of the line is the dominant value. Conductance may not be ignored in stability studies.
The si unit of conductance is?
The unit of electrical conductance is the mho.
What is the openings on the underside of leaves?
stomata =Specialized passages through the cuticle that enable plants to exchange gases.
Specialized structures that allow gas to enter and leave leaf?
Stomata
What is the use of conductance?
When referring to electrical conductance, it is used in the application of electricity to equipment. Electrical conductance measures the equipment's ability to conduct electrical charge. A practical application would be to decrease the resistance in an electrical circuit so that the conductance is higher and electricity flows more smoothly.
What is effect of dilution on conductance?
The conductance of a given conductor, C = La/l ..(i)\ L = l/Ra ..(ii)The resistance is expressed in units of ohm, the conductance has units of ohm-1 or mho.The conductance of solutions is also governed by the same relations. From (i), if l = 1,a = 1, the specific conductance L = C. That is,the specific conductance (L) is the conductance of the solution enclosed between two electrodes of 1 sq. cm area and 1 cm apart. when you dilute the solution the concentration decrease and the specific conductance also decreaseThe conductance of a solution depends upon the number of ions present and hence on the concentration. To compare the conductivity of different solutions, it is necessary to take the concentration of the solutions into consideration. It is done by using equivalentconductance, l.
What is singular form of stomata?
Stomata is already the plural form of stoma.
What are Units of conductance?
Siemens.
What is the conductance of a 4.7 Ohm resister?
Conductance is reciprocal of resistance. Hence, G=1/R. Calculate now
