Compare and contrast stomata with the pores found in liverworts. Compare and contrast stomata with the pores found in liverworts. Stomata doesn't allow CO2 to diffuse and cannot be closed if conditions become dry. Liverwort pores allow gas exchange and cannot be closed either if conditions become dry. Stomata allow CO2 to diffuse and can close to minimize water loss. Liverwort pores doesn, t allow gas exchange and cannot be closed if conditions become dry.

Explanation:

In the kingdom plantae, the liverworts belong to the phylum Bryophyta. A liverwort has a simple structure, ribbon- like body, that lies flat on the ground and is attached to the soil by many rhizoids. They grow in damp places on land and are capable of controlling gaseous exchange through the pores found on their leaf surfaces. Liverworts are non- vascular plants therefore they lack stomata. Unlike the stomata of vascular plants which close in dry weather, the air pores of liverworts remain open all the time. Liverworts cannot control their water loss (transpiration) through the pores.

Stomata are found in the epidermal layer of leaves in vascular plants. The opening and closing of stomata, through the help of the guard cells, control the flow of gases in and out of the leaves. This control is necessary to prevent excessive loss of water as vapour from the plant body throughout transpiration. Changes in the solute concentration of the guard cells cause water to flow in and out of the leaf epidermal cells.

Therefore, to COMPARE the stomata with pores of liverworts, they both allow gaseous exchange but in CONTRAST, stomata has the ability to control water loss as it can open and close while the pores lack this ability.

you did not give any options thus this is the best answer i can give to you with this little information you have given

> they are both natural and not man made

> they can be tracked and predicted by the right tools
