What else can I help you with?
What is the outer surface of the leaf that has a waxing coating called?
The outer surface of the leaf with a waxy coating is called the cuticle. The cuticle helps reduce water loss from the leaf and provides protection against pathogens and physical damage.
What are small pores on the leaf surface called?
Small pores on the leaf surface are called stomata. They are responsible for regulating the exchange of gases, such as carbon dioxide and oxygen, during photosynthesis.
Is the top part of the leaf covered by a waxy surface?
Yes, the top part of the leaf is usually covered by a waxy surface called the cuticle. This waxy cuticle helps prevent water loss and protects the leaf from physical damage and pathogens.
Evaporation of water from surface of the leaf is called?
This phenomenon is called transpiration.
What is the outer cell layer of the leaf. It is transparent so sunlight can pass through?
The outer surface of the leaf has a thin transparent waxy covering called the cuticle
What is the outer surface of a leaf called?
cuticle
What waxy substance cover the leaf surface?
the waxy material in the leaf is called "CUTIN"
What is the outer surface of the leaf that has a waxing coating called?
The outer surface of the leaf with a waxy coating is called the cuticle. The cuticle helps reduce water loss from the leaf and provides protection against pathogens and physical damage.
What part of the leaf do gasses pass in and out of?
Tiny little pores on the leaf's surface called Stomata
What are the key features of simple leaf anatomy?
The key features of simple leaf anatomy include a single blade, a main vein called the midrib, smaller veins branching out from the midrib, and a petiole that connects the leaf to the stem. The leaf is typically flat and thin, with a top surface called the adaxial surface and a bottom surface called the abaxial surface. The outer layer of the leaf is called the epidermis, which contains stomata for gas exchange and a waxy cuticle to prevent water loss.
What is the bottom of a leaf called?
The bottom of a leaf is called the abaxial surface. It is typically lighter in color than the top of the leaf and may have different characteristics, such as more stomata for gas exchange.
What is the skin on a leaf called?
The outer layer of a leaf's skin is called the waxy cuticle, or just cuticle. You could also include the next layer, the epidermis layer. Mostly, though, the leaf's skin is called the 'Leaf surface'.
What are small pores on the leaf surface called?
Small pores on the leaf surface are called stomata. They are responsible for regulating the exchange of gases, such as carbon dioxide and oxygen, during photosynthesis.
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
Is the top part of the leaf covered by a waxy surface?
Yes, the top part of the leaf is usually covered by a waxy surface called the cuticle. This waxy cuticle helps prevent water loss and protects the leaf from physical damage and pathogens.
Evaporation of water from surface of the leaf is called?
This phenomenon is called transpiration.
Where are the stomata located on the lower surface of a leaf?
The stomata are located on the lower surface of a leaf.
