Leaf & Chloroplast Anatomy definitions Flashcards

Tiny, adjustable pores on leaf surfaces that regulate gas exchange (CO₂ and O₂) with the atmosphere.

The process by which plants exchange oxygen and carbon dioxide with the atmosphere through structures called stomata.

The layer of gases surrounding Earth, crucial for life, enabling gas exchange in plants through structures like stomata.

A colorless, odorless gas absorbed by plants through stomata for photosynthesis and released by animals during respiration.

A diatomic molecule essential for cellular respiration and energy production in aerobic organisms, exchanged through plant stomata.

A plant structure that facilitates gas exchange with the atmosphere through tiny openings called stomata, which regulate the intake of carbon dioxide and release of oxygen.

Groups of similar cells working together to perform specific functions in an organism, such as gas exchange in plants through structures like stomata.
