Question

Define: Heterotrophs, manure, stomata.

Answer 1

1. organisms that obtain food from plants or other animals.
2. plant and animal waste used as a source of nutrients for plants.
3. small pores present on the leaves for exchange of gases.

Answer 2

Heterotrophs:

Living organisms which cannot produce their own and depend on other plants and animals for food and examples include humans, lions, etc.

Manure:

Manure is the decomposed form of dead plants and animals, which is applied to the soil to increase production. It is a natural form of fertilizer and is cost-effective. Manure is highly rich in organic matter and humus and thus improves the soil fertility.

Stomata:

Stomata are tiny openings or pores that enable gaseous exchange. Stomata are usually found in plant leaves, but they can also be found in some stems. When it does not need carbon dioxide for photosynthesis, the plant closes these pores.
