Stomata play an important role in photosynthesis as they allow the plant to absorb carbon dioxide from the environment. In exchange, stomata allow oxygen, which is a waste product of photosynthesis, to be released. In the process, water vapor is also lost as the internal parts of the leaves are exposed. To reduce exposure, stomata are found on the underside of the leaves. They are protected from the sun as excessive heat can increase the rate of water vapor leaving and thus wither the plant. Stomata also have guard cells around the epidermis that close when too much water is being lost.
Destruction of the forest results in the disappearance of the species in this forest, which might not be found in other forests. This means that some species will become extinct. Extinction of species leads to reduction of biodiversity - the correct answer is the first one: forest destruction will <span> reduce biodiversity and remove organisms with the potential to help humans</span>
Answer:
Constant variables
Explanation:
Elaina's investigation lacked the critical ingredient of constant variables which are important components of every scientific investigation. In every research, there are 3 important variables, namely:
1. Dependent variables: the actual variable to be measured during the course of investigations and whose values are dependent on another variable (independent variable) supplied by the investigators.
2. Independent variable: one of the variables that are supplied by investigators whose values are often manipulated to see the kind of changes it will cause to the dependent variable.
3. Constant variables: other variables that are neither independent nor dependent but constant for all the various experimental groups in investigations.
