Chloroplasts are necessary for photosynthesis. This must in some way be necessary to operate the opening and closing of stoma. The neighboring epidermal cells do not have chloroplasts and do not require large amounts of energy from photosynthesis do to their simple job of being the "skin" of the leaf. These epidermal cells are fed by lower layers which do have chloroplasts.
What else can I help you with?
What organelles do the guard cells contain that the surrounding epidermal cells do not?
Guard cells contain specialized organelles called chloroplasts, which are responsible for photosynthesis. These chloroplasts enable guard cells to produce sugars and other molecules needed for energy. The surrounding epidermal cells, on the other hand, do not typically contain chloroplasts as they are not directly involved in photosynthesis.
The only cells that contain chloroplasts in the epidermis are?
Guard cells, but mesophylls also have them
Do the normal epidermal cells contain these green bodies?
the epidermal layer of a leaf or stem is green due to the presence of pigment carrying bodies called the chloroplasts.also it is seen the palisade tissue of the leaves to carry out photosynthesis
Why onion epidermal cell does not contain chloroplast?
chloroplasts contain chlorophyll which help to make the food for the plant (glucose). An onion is a bulb, it is food storage for the actual onion plant, it doesn't make its own food so doesn't need chloroplasts *Chloroplasts are used for photosynthesis (I) Hope it helps (Y)
What cellular structures are found in the epidermal cells of humans but not in epidermal cell of leaves?
Melanocytes, which produce melanin for skin pigmentation, are found in human epidermal cells but not in leaf epidermal cells. Additionally, human epidermal cells contain structures like Langerhans cells for immune response, which are not present in leaf epidermal cells.
What cell structure is in the guard cells but not in other epidermal cells?
Guard cells contain chloroplasts, which are responsible for photosynthesis, while other epidermal cells do not typically contain chloroplasts. Chloroplasts are important for the production of sugars and energy through the process of photosynthesis in guard cells.
What structure can be seen in Elodea leaf but not present in epidermal cells of onion cells?
Chloroplasts can be seen in Elodea leaf cells but not in the epidermal cells of onion cells. Chloroplasts are responsible for photosynthesis in plant cells, containing chlorophyll that captures sunlight for energy production. Onion epidermal cells do not contain chloroplasts as they do not perform photosynthesis.
What organelles do the guard cells contain that the surrounding epidermal cells do not?
Guard cells contain specialized organelles called chloroplasts, which are responsible for photosynthesis. These chloroplasts enable guard cells to produce sugars and other molecules needed for energy. The surrounding epidermal cells, on the other hand, do not typically contain chloroplasts as they are not directly involved in photosynthesis.
The only cells that contain chloroplasts in the epidermis are?
Guard cells, but mesophylls also have them
Why are chloroplasts absent in onion epidermal cells and potato tubular cells?
Onion epidermal cells and potato tuber cells do not contain chloroplasts because they do not require photosynthesis for energy production. These cells mainly function in storage and support, so they do not need chloroplasts for the process of photosynthesis.
Do the normal epidermal cells contain these green bodies?
the epidermal layer of a leaf or stem is green due to the presence of pigment carrying bodies called the chloroplasts.also it is seen the palisade tissue of the leaves to carry out photosynthesis
Where are cells containing chlorplasts located in a leaf?
Mesophyllic cells are the cells that lie between the lower and upper epidermal layers of leaves and contain chloroplasts necessary for the production of sugars from sunlight.
Why onion epidermal cell does not contain chloroplast?
chloroplasts contain chlorophyll which help to make the food for the plant (glucose). An onion is a bulb, it is food storage for the actual onion plant, it doesn't make its own food so doesn't need chloroplasts *Chloroplasts are used for photosynthesis (I) Hope it helps (Y)

Do epidermal cells from petunia stain with phloroglucinol?
No, epidermal cells from petunia do not stain with phloroglucinol. Phloroglucinol is typically used to stain lignin in plant tissues, not epidermal cells. The stain mainly reacts with lignin, which is absent in the epidermal cells.
Which type of dermal cell has more chloroplasts than any other dermal cells because it has greater energy needs?
Guard cells have more chloroplasts than any other dermal cells because they need energy to facilitate the opening and closing of stomata for gas exchange and water regulation in plants.
What are epidermal dendritic cells?
Langerhans cells
