Why are most of the stomata on the bottom of the leaf

Biology
1 answer:
larisa86 [58]3 years ago
3 0

Answer: Stomata plays very crucial roles in plants. During photosynthesis, gas exchange takes place via the stomata. Water also evaporates from plants through the stomata. In plants, most of the stomata are usually on the bottom of the leaf IN ORDER TO PREVENT EXCESSIVE LOSS OF WATER.

During the day, the sunlight falls on the leaf directly and draws water from the plants. Locating the stomata at the underside of the leave reduces the amount of water that can be lost through excessive evaporation. Also, locating the stomata on the underside of leaves prevent  the leaves from taking in too much water during rainfall.

Approximately how quickly do the Earth's crustal plates move? A. A few centimeters a year B. A few centimeters a month C. A few
aliya0001 [1]

The correct answer is - A. A few centimeters a year.

Earth's crustal plates move very slowly, between 2 cm and 5 cm (depending on the plate) annually. This is the reason why it takes millions of years for them to significantly change their position, and with it the appearance of our planet. These crustal plates are slowly moving around the planet because they are powered by flow in the interior mantle.

What is one reason why many geologists did not at first accept the theory of continental drift?
Ivan

The first reason was that his theory of continental drift was just too weak for most geologists to accept. Even though he believed the supercontinent that broke up into different continents moved, he did not have a clear explanation to how the continents moved. The other reason is that some of his explanation clashed with ideas that were widely accepted in the science communities. He used similar fossils from different continents to back up his theory of continental drift. However, at that time, many scientists that had observed similarities in fossils in places like South America and Africa believed there were similar fossils in different continents because of a land bridge that were formed by two continents.


Many science communities believe that land bridges allowed migration of many different species and even people to one place to another by large bodies of water frozen by low temperature known as ice age.
