The more stomata a leaf contains the greater the rate of gas exchange and the less water it will be able to accumulate. Stomatal pores are formed between

You Light Up My Life Purpose: To determine how different environmental conditions affect a plants starch levels. Hypotheses: 1. If the plant that is in absence of CO2 and is kept in a closed environment‚ then it will have a starch level of 1 because the plant is missing CO2‚ which it needs to complete the photosynthesis process. 2. If the plant is in a closed environment‚ then the plant will have a starch level of 3 because it has all the environmental conditions it needs. 3. If the plant is kept

Big Idea 2 Biological systems utilize free energy and molecular building blocks to grow‚ to reproduce and to maintain dynamic homeostasis. Living systems require both free energy and matter to maintain order‚ grow and reproduce. Organisms employ various strategies to capture‚ use and store free energy and other vital resources. Energy deficiencies are not only detrimental to individual organisms; they also can cause disruptions at the population and ecosystem levels. Biological systems must both
