Answer:
Respiration In Stems
Respiration In Stems- Lenticels
In the case of the stem, the air gets diffused in the stomata and passes through various parts of the cell for respiration. The carbon dioxide produced during this stage also diffuses through the stomata. In higher plants or woody plants, the gaseous exchange is carried out by lenticels.
Respiration In Leaves
Respiration In Leaves - Opening and Closing the Stomata
Leaves comprise of tiny pores referred to as stomata. The exchange of gases takes place via stomata through the process of diffusion. Each stoma is controlled by Guard Cells. The opening and closing of the stoma help in the exchange of gases between the atmosphere and the interior of leaves.
