What is the importance of guard cells ?

Biology
1 answer:
WITCHER [35]2 years ago
5 0

The guard cell is responsible for controlling the size of the stomata in leaves. These do so as a result of an interaction between potassium ions and water in and around the cells. When potassium ions accumulate inside the guard cells the water potential inside these cells is lower than that of the outside and as a result, water has to be taken in. This makes the guard cells turgid which in turn stretches them and results in the opening of the stomata. Meanwhile, when potassium ions accumulate outside the cell, the opposite scenario results. Water from inside the cell moves out, making the guard cells flaccid, thus causing these to cover (and effectively close) the stomata.

sveticcg [70]

Answer:

Our energy supply comes mainly from fossil fuels, with nuclear power and renewable sources rounding out the mix. These sources originate mostly in our local star, the Sun. Electricity falls into its own category because it's an energy carrier and not a primary source.
