Year 9 Learning About Plants

Year 9 Learning About Plants - Year 9 Learning About Plants


 

This week, Year 9 have been looking at plants and studying what different parts of the plant do. They looked at the leaf on Wednesday and used nail polish to take a ‘cast’ of the stomata of a leaf. The stomata are small holes in the bottom of the leaf to allow water to leave, and gas exchange in and out of the leaf so that they can perform photosynthesis.
