PLANT CELL Introduction Plant cell is the basic unit of structure and function in nearly all plants. The range of specialization and the character of association of plant cells are very wide. In the simplest plant forms a single cell constitutes a whole organism and carries out all the life functions. In just slightly more complex forms‚ cells are associated structurally‚ but each cell appears to carry out the fundamental life functions‚ although certain ones may be specialized

Title: Transpiration Aim: To study the significance of the pattern of stomatal distribution in Coleus and Lucky bamboo leaf Theory: Transpiration is the loss of water vapour from the surface of the plants due to evaporation. Transpiration can help the uptake of water in the xylem due to transpiration pull. During transpiration‚ mesophyll cells lose water continuously to the air space. This decreases the water potential of the mesophyll cells. Water is then drawn from their neighbouring cells
