The stomata close during strong sunlight so they don't lose excess water. The stomata is how water is excreted from the cell.

In most cases it is at the underside of the leaf, as it does not want sunlight to dry it up.

Does rain effect stomata?

Yes, rain can affect stomata by causing them to open or close. Stomata are small openings on the underside of leaves that allow for gas exchange, including water vapor. When it rains, the increase in humidity can trigger stomata to close to prevent excessive water loss through transpiration.


What enters through stomata in photosynthesis?

How oxygen and carbon dioxide enter and leave cells?

carbon dioxide goes into pores in the under surface of the leaf, called stomata, and diffuse into the leafs tissues and oxygen exits through these pores aswell though this cannot happen when the stomata close up


Where in plant does carbon dioxide enter?

Carbon dioxide enters plants through small openings called stomata, which are typically found on the underside of leaves. Stomata open and close to regulate the flow of gases in and out of the plant, allowing carbon dioxide to enter for photosynthesis.


Shannon is a botanist who observed stomatal closing of plants under daytime drought conditions Why would the stomata close?

Plants close their stomata to conserve water and prevent excessive water loss during periods of drought. This helps them maintain their internal water balance and avoid wilting or damage from dehydration.


Why does carbon dioxide enter through a plants stomata?

Carbon dioxide enters through a plant's stomata because it is a key component needed for photosynthesis, which is the process by which plants convert carbon dioxide, water, and sunlight into glucose and oxygen. The stomata are small openings on the surface of leaves that allow for gas exchange, with carbon dioxide entering the leaf and oxygen exiting.


3 Why is stomata commonly found on the under side part of the boat lily plant leaf?

Stomata are mainly located on the lower surface of boat lily plant leaves to reduce water loss through evaporation. This positioning helps minimize direct exposure to sunlight and wind, which can speed up transpiration and lead to dehydration in the plant. The lower surface placement also helps protect the stomata from clogging with dust or debris.

How do Lily's breath?

Using their stomata normally located under the leaf, but since the bottom of the lily pad's leaf is submerged in water, the stomata are on the top of the leaf.
