How do plants breathe through stomata? Key regulators of stomata are plant vacuoles, fluid-filled organelles bound by a single membrane called the tonoplast. Plant vacuoles are fluid-filled ...

On the lower half of the leaf are spongy mesophyll cells. These have air spaces between them to let gases flow. The stomata - tiny openings or pores – allow gases such as carbon dioxide and ...

Each leaf parenchyma cell can hold hundreds of chloroplasts ... And we’ll find those funky little stomata on the underside of the leaf. Since water escapes the plant through the stomata ...

It does this through stomata. These are tiny holes in the leaf surface that can be opened and sealed shut using special 'guard' cells. If we can find out exactly how stomatal index relates to these ...

Despite this dependence, plants retain less than 5% of the water absorbed by roots for cell expansion and plant ... water enters leaves via petiole (i.e., the leaf stalk) xylem that branches ...
