stomata -- Openings in the epidermis of a stem or leaf of a plant which permit gas exchange with the air. In general, all plants except liverworts have stomata in their sporophyte stage.
Stomata - small mouth-like or nose-like openings (pores) on leaf underside, responsible for transpiration and many other life functions: The millions of stomata must be kept very dean to function properly.
Sugar - food product of a plant.
Stomata A minute pore in the epidermis, especially in the lower surface on the leaf. The breathing pores of a leaf.
Stomate A breathing or water pore of a plant leaf or stem; sweat gland.
stomata)1. An orifice in the epidermis of a leaf communicating with internal air cavities. 2.
stoma (plural: stomata). Natural opening in a leaf surface that serves for gas exchange and water evaporation and has the ability to open and close in response to environmental conditions.
Transpiration of water on the leaf and stem surfaces will cause the stomata's guard cells on the undersides of the leaves to close to protect water resources; if sufficient watering of the tree is not maintained, as a result, the leaves curl, dry up, ...
CAM, an abbreviation for 'crassulacean acid metabolism,' permits succulents to open their stomata (small pores on the leaves through which gas exchange occurs) at night and absorb the carbon dioxide it needs for growth during the dark hours.
Spores attach themselves to the plant, germinate in a film of moisture within five to six hours and penetrate the leaf surface through stomata. Early season infection of fruit also occurs through stomata.
CAM plant - Standing for crassulacean acid metabolism, this is a type of plant that employs an alternative photosynthesis pathway where CO2 enters the open stomata of the leaf during the night, ...
A leaf contains thousands of tiny pores called stomata through which it transpires. These openings are also vulnerable portals for moisture loss. Plants develop various strategies for reducing this loss, and one of them is pubescence.
Carbon dioxide is taken up through microscopic pores in plant leaves called stomata. When the stomata are letting in carbon dioxide, water vapor escapes through a process called transpiration.
transpiration The process of losing water in the form of vapor through stomata.
transpirational pull The force exerted by transporation from the leaves which draws water up through the plant.
It is essential to the chemical reaction that allows the opening and closing of the plant's stomata, tiny pores that allow gas and water to be exchanged between the plant and the air around it. Without this exchange, photosynthesis can't occur.
TRANSPIRATION: a process that carries minerals to leaves where oxygen and water vapor escape through the stomata.
"Every individual alive today, the highest as well as the lowest, is derived in an unbroken line from the first and lowest forms." ...
Stomata, or tiny holes, on the undersides of leaves transpire and give off moisture at night. The moisture attracts airborne pollutants.
Plant stomates, the gas exchange openings, may be blocked by oil applications. The resulting stomata suffocation causes brown leaves and leaf drop.
Evapotranspiration-The combined evaporation of water from soil, water, and plant surfaces, and the transpiration of water through the plant and out through leaf stomata.
The needles are roughly 4-sided (similar to spruce), over 1 inch long, bluish-green but appearing silver because of 2 white rows of stomata on the underside and 1-2 rows on the upper surface.
