Ecology Lab Report 4/17/12 Abstract Sampling Stomatal Densities of Various Species of Plants The importance of stomata is the fact that they control the intake of carbon dioxide and the loss of water in plants. The ratio of intake to loss creates a better picture of which plants adapt would to their environment and which would not. Eight different plant species were sampled the stomatal densities and compared them to their environments. The densities were recorded for each species

Ecology and economy are two different studies that have merged together in recent years. This is because human lifestyle is having an increasingly negative impact on the surrounding environment. There has been a shift in recent years from technologies that are wasteful of resources toward technologies that use resources more efficiently and reduce pollution‚ a shift from conventional economy to sustainable economy. We are living beings on a planet Earth. Humans are living beings who depends on
