How are the opening and stomata related to transpiration When does transpiration occur?

opening and closing of stomata occurs due to turgor changes in guard cells ....................due to exchange of gases carbon dioxide accumulate creating acidic nature resulting in favourable conditions for conversion of starch to glucose ...........glucose being soluble in water increases solute content resulting in endosmosis ..................this results in pulling apart of the opposed inner thicker walls creating an open pore in gaurd cells of stomata

∙ 13y agothe stomata allows water to leave the leaf - this water loss is called transpiration.

Why do plants need stomata and air space?
The air space keeps the stomata moist so that transpiration and gas exchange can occur. The gas exchange in the stomata needs to take place so that photosynthesis can occur. So without the air space you have no stomata, and without the stomata you have no photosynthesis which is how plants obtain their food.
What is the function of stomata in a leaf?
Stomata are small pores in the underside of leaves. The primary function is to allow gaseous exchange between the plant's internal tissues and the atmosphere. Oxygen and water vapour (byproducts of photosynthesis) are released from the open stomata into the atmosphere; carbon dioxide present in the atmosphere is allowed to enter the stoma (this is required for photosynthesis.
What will happen to plants if there is no transpiration?
A plant can not have no stomata, some plants such as cacti have very little but still have some. Hypothetically if a plant had none it would die because plants need their stomata to take carbon dioxide in and let oxygen out.
Where does most transpiration occur in a leaf?
On the bottom of the leaves. This is because Stomata, the place in the leaf were gaseous exchanges of water and carbon dioxide occur, are more common in this part of the leaf compared to the top of the leaf. This is an adaption, because if plants had all of their stomata on the top of their leaves, excessive loss of water will be lost to the environment and cause dehydration of the plant and even potential death.
What refers to water vapors leaving the earths surface through plants?
This process is called transpiration. This process is basically the evaporation of water from plant leaves through the stomata that are small pores on leaves. For this to occur, a plant draws up water from the soil.

What is the main cause of transpiration?
the main cause of transpiration in plants is because transpiration means loss or gain of water in plants or give off water vapour from the leaves which is necessary for the process of photosynthesis

How does transpiration move water up in a plant?
Transpiration of water is evaporation of excess water in a plant through stomata of a plant. When water is transpired, water is pulled upwards through the vessels to the stomata present in the leaves of the plant. This process not only allows transpiration to occur but also transport the water from the roots to the leaves of the plant.
How stomata occur during night?
Stomata do not occur - during the night or day. Stomata are physical features of leaves: they are there from when the leaf is created to when it dies.

How does light and darkness effect the growth of plants?
Most plants get energy by photosynthesis, a process in which the plant's cloroplasts asorb the energy from the sun and convert it into processable energy. When a plant is in darkness, it cannot asorb sunlight, therefore it won't get sufficient energy. When gardining, be sure to provide the plant with adaquate light, but not too much or the plant could die.
How light intensity affects transpiration?
light, along with carbon dioxide and water allows photosynthesis to happen, producing glucose and oxygen. therefore, the glucose created may allow the plant to transpire? so im thinking the light along with carbon dioxe and water equally affects the activity of transpiration, using the energy made by photosynthesis. i may not be correct as im year10, and i just briefly read the definition of transpiration, but that's what i think. EDIT: College student Carbon dioxide and light are necessary for photosynthesis to occur. Plants have specialized structures known as stomata, essentially tiny little mouths, that open up in order to allow carbon dioxide to enter the plant. The problem is, plants also really need water, and when stomata are open, water leaks out the tiny little holes. It wouldn't be very efficient to keep the stomata open all the time, as the plant would constantly be losing water. For that reason, plants only open their stomata when all the conditions are right for photosynthesis. If light and CO2 are missing, the stomata stay closed and the plant gets to keep its water. If light and CO2 are present, the stomata open and photosynthesis begins. Transpiration is defined by water loss through the leaves of a plant, so it makes sense that it would go way up when the stomata are open. Transpiration rate increases with light intensity.
What part of the leaf does most photosynthesis occur in?
in the stomata
