Topic Question:
The Persea Americana is a tree that is native to South Central Mexico, classified as a member of the flowering plant family Lauraceae. The avocado tree makes a fruit which then bears a single large seed on it for the next generation of avocados.Is there a difference between the amount of stomatal found on shaded and unshaded leaves on an avocado tree?
Aim:
To determine the stomatal density between non-light and light bearing leaves on a Persea Americana tree. Hypothesis: The non-light bearing leaves of the tree will have a less stomatal density as most of the gaseous exchange will be done on the top leaves, and the sun leaves will contain …show more content…
Results:
The following Tables were conducted to be results of the stomata density experiment.
