Calculation of molar mass of glucose (C6H12O6) The molar mass of glucose can be calculated from the molar masses of individual atoms present in it. From the molecular formula, C6H12O6, one can find there are 6 carbon atoms, 12 hydrogen atoms and 6 oxygen atoms in one molecule of glucose.
Guard cells are cells surrounding each stoma. They help to regulate the rate of transpiration by opening and closing the stomata.
Water enters the root and is transported up to the leaves through specialized plant cells known as xylem (pronounces zigh-lem). Land plants must guard against drying out (desiccation) and so have evolved specialized structures known as stomata to allow gas to enter and leave the leaf.he raw materials of photosynthesis, water and carbon dioxide, enter the cells of the leaf, and the products of photosynthesis, sugar and oxygen, leave the leaf. Cross section of a leaf, showing the anatomical features important to the study of photosynthesis: stoma, guard cell, mesophyll cells, and vein.
