Stomata Leaf Peel Count
Aim:
- To examine the stomata on the upper and lower epidermis of a leaf.
- To investigate and find out which side has more and why.
Prediction:
I predict that there will be more stomata on the underside of the leaf (the lower epidermis) than on the upper epidermis because that way the maximum amount of sunlight can enter the leaf without many stomata blocking the way. Also, a lower number of stomata would increase the surface area and therefore increase the amount of area available for light to hit.
