Answer:

Gaseous exchange

Explanation:

In terrestrial plants, gaseous exchange occurs mainly in leaves and to a lesser extent in the roots and stems. In leaves, the structures involved in gaseous exchange are stomata and spongy mesophyll tissues.

The stoma comprises of a stomatal pore and two specialized guard cells. The guard cells are structurally adapted by having chloroplasts, thicker, inelastic inner walls and thinner and elastic outer walls.

The stomata mostly opens during the day. They open when the guard cells are turgid.When the guard cells are flaccid, the thinner outer wall shrinks. The inner thicker walls curvature reduces causing the stomata to close.

Describe how protists are helpful and harmful to humans and other organisms
-BARSIC- [3]

Answer:

Plant-like protists produce almost one-half of the oxygen on the planet through photosynthesis. Other protists decompose and recycle nutrients that humans need to live.  For example, medicines made from protists are used in treatment of high blood pressure, digestion problems, ulcers, and arthritis. Fungi are very important ecologically, because they are one of the most important decomposers in most ecosystems. They help to break down plant fibers such as dead leaves and wood and allow the nutrients to be released into the soil. Fungi are useful to humans because they have economic value.
