Question
Chapter 34, Problem 8TYU
Summary Introduction
Introduction: Plants are non-motile living beings that are capable of producing their own food by utilizing the sunlight and carbon dioxide. Stomata are pores present in leaves that opens during day time when carbon dioxide is needed for the photosynthesis process. At night time, the photosynthesis process is shut down and stomata is in closed in condition.
