(1) what is the role of stomata present on the surface
of leaves?
(II) what are insectivorous plants ? How Pitcher plant
trap insects.
(III) what is meant by Convection ?why is it that
Convection cannot takes place in solids?
Answers
Explanation:
1. Functions of the stomata
They allow the exchange of gases (CO2 and O2) with the atmosphere. Evaporation of water from the leaf surface occurs through the stomata. Thus, the stomata help in the process of transpiration. ... Allows the intake of carbon dioxide and to give out oxygen during the process of photosynthesis.
2. plants that derive some or most of their nutrients from trapping and consuming animals or protozoans, typically insects and other arthropods. However, they generate energy from photosynthesis. Foraging, flying or crawling insects such as flies are attracted to a cavity formed by the cupped leaf, often by visual lures such as anthocyanin pigments, and nectar bribes. The rim of the pitcher (peristome) is slippery when moistened by condensation or nectar, causing insects to fall into the trap.
3.the cycle of warm fluid going above cold fluid simultaneously is called convection. ... convection can not take place in solids because their inter particle space is less compared to fluids so its impossible to happen in solids.
