from the aerial parts of plants‚ especially leaves but also stems‚ flowers and roots. Leaf surfaces are dotted with openings called stomates that are bordered by guard cells. Collectively‚ the structures are called stomata.[1] Leaf transpiration occurs through stomata‚ and can be as a necessary "cost" associated with many processes such as the opening of the pistil and allowing the diffusion of carbon dioxide gas from the air for photosynthesis. Transpiration also cools plants and enables mass flow

SICK PLANTS Hypothesis: From my research‚ I think the plant in the solution containing all nutrients will have the fastest / most successful growth‚ and the control group / water solution will have the least growth as it doesn’t have any of its necessary nutrients. Variables: The independent variable will be the solution the plants are put in to begin with. All other conditions will be kept the same‚ such as temperature‚ sunlight‚ length of shoot‚ time space left. I will have a control group
