What are the differents between cuticular transpiration and stomatal transpiration?

cuticular transpiration occurs through the cuticle while the stomatal transpiration occurs through the stomata.


How does leaf size affect stomatal density?

Leaf size and stomatal density have an inverse relationship – larger leaves tend to have lower stomatal density, and smaller leaves tend to have higher stomatal density. This is because larger leaves have a greater surface area available for gas exchange, so they require fewer stomata per unit area compared to smaller leaves. Conversely, smaller leaves need higher stomatal density to facilitate sufficient gas exchange with their smaller surface area.


Do plant leaf differ in their stomatal density?

Yes, plant leaves can differ significantly in their stomatal density, which is influenced by various factors such as species, environmental conditions, and the leaf's position on the plant. For instance, leaves exposed to high light intensity or dry conditions often have higher stomatal densities to facilitate gas exchange and minimize water loss. Additionally, different plant species may have evolved distinct stomatal densities as adaptations to their specific habitats.


How stomatal conductance is measured by porometer?

A porometer measures stomatal conductance by determining the rate of water vapor movement through small pores on plant leaves. The device creates a small gradient of water vapor concentration and measures the rate at which water vapor diffuses through the leaf surface, providing a direct measurement of stomatal conductance.


What is the special features of guard cell?

Guard cells contain chloroplasts for photosynthesis, have a kidney bean shape that allows for stomatal opening and closing, and regulate gas exchange in plants by controlling the size of stomatal pores.


What controls the size of the stoma?

The size of the stomatal opening is primarily regulated by guard cells, which respond to environmental signals like light, humidity, and carbon dioxide levels. When water enters the guard cells, they swell and cause the stomatal pore to open. Conversely, when water leaves the guard cells, they become flaccid, leading to stomatal closure.


What will happen to guard cell and stomatal pore when water flows?

When water flows into the guard cells, they become turgid, causing them to swell and curve away from each other. This opening of the guard cells creates an opening of the stomatal pore, allowing for gas exchange and transpiration to occur.


What is the specialized structure that allows gas to enter and leave the leaf?

Stomatal pores


The process by which plants release water vapor into the through the stomata?

Stomatal transpiration


What is the meaning of stomatal apparatus?

The stomatal apparatus is a structure found on the surface of plant leaves that is responsible for gas exchange. It consists of two specialized cells known as guard cells that control the opening and closing of the stomata, which allows for the exchange of gases such as oxygen and carbon dioxide during photosynthesis.


How do plants pick up oxygen?
