Where are the stomata located on the lower surface of a leaf?
The stomata are located on the lower surface of a leaf.
Why calculate leaf surface area with transpiration?
Calculating leaf surface area helps estimate the total surface available for transpiration. Transpiration is the process where water is evaporated from the surface of the leaf into the atmosphere, which is important for plant cooling and nutrient uptake. By knowing the leaf surface area, we can better understand the potential transpiration rate and overall water requirements of the plant.
What waxy substance cover the leaf surface?
the waxy material in the leaf is called "CUTIN"
Why is the upper surface of a leaf transparent?
The upper surface of a leaf is transparent because it lacks chloroplasts which carry out photosynthesis. This allows light to pass through the upper surface and reach the chloroplast-rich cells in the lower side of the leaf where photosynthesis occurs.
What is Waxy layer of the leaf?
The waxy layer of the leaf, known as the cuticle, is a waterproof barrier that covers the outer surface of the leaf. It helps prevent excessive water loss from the leaf through evaporation and protects the leaf from damage by external factors such as UV radiation and pathogens. The cuticle also serves to reduce water droplet formation on the leaf surface, helping to prevent fungal growth.
Where does water leave the leaf?
The water evaporates through the stomata during transpiration. The stomata are very small holes on the surface of the leaf.
How does carbon enter a leaf?
the leaf has super little holes. The holes breathe in the carbon dioxide.
Where does carbon dioxide enter in a leaf via holes?
the leaf!
What gas enters through the holes in the leaf what are they called?
The gas that enters through the holes in the leaf, known as stomata, is carbon dioxide (CO2). Stomata are small openings on the leaf surface that allow for gas exchange, enabling the plant to take in carbon dioxide for photosynthesis while releasing oxygen as a byproduct. Additionally, they help regulate water loss through transpiration.
Why does water roll off the surface of a leaf?
because the leaf is non polar or Because the leaf is coated in lipid molecules
Where are the stomata located on the lower surface of a leaf?
The stomata are located on the lower surface of a leaf.
What are the holes in the leaf that the CO2 enters through?
Stomata
What is the epidermis in a leaf?
The surface of the leaf that you see is the "epidermis".
Why does a leaf develop as a flattened surface?
Leaf has a flat surface inorder to absorb maximun sunlight
Why the food making tissue is at the top surface of the leaf?
why is the food-making tissue at the leaf surface why
What is green with holes in it?
golf greens, A leaf bitten by a Caterpillar
What are the holes in the leaf called that the CO2 enters through?
Stomata
