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 ...

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 ...

That process, called carbon fixation, resulted in the assembly of two three-carbon molecules called 3-phosphoglycerate (3-PGA). The energy stored in ATP and NADPH helps turn these 3-PGA molecules into ...

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 ...
