Question

Please help: Which process in plant physiology could not occur if the opening of the undersides leaves are closed?

Answer 1

A)Photosynthesis

Explanation:

• Photosynthesis is the process by which green plant prepare glucose using carbon dioxide and water in presence of sunlight and chlorophyll.
• The openings on the undersurface of the leaves are called stomata.
• Stomata play a vital role in exchange of gases between tissues and the surrounding.
• If these openings remain closed then carbon dioxide will not diffuse into the cells and oxygen will not diffuse out of the cell.
• As a result,  photosynthesis will not take place and the plants will die due to lack of food and nutrients.
