There are three major classes of plant cells that can then differentiate to form the tissue structures of roots, stems, and leaves. (The three distinct types of plant cells are classified ...

Revise the structure of a leaf and how it has several adaptations for photosynthesis with this BBC Bitesize Biology KS3 guide.

Plants grow from something unexpected—carbon drawn in through tiny pores called stomata. At Stanford, researchers are ...

Stanford researchers discovered how plant cells decide whether to form breathing pores based on size and neighbor signals.

Inspired by the cells in leaves that control leaf curvature to regulate water loss, researchers present flat panels that can morph into a stiff, complex 3D structure with a different Gaussian ...

The image sequences provide new insights into how this cell structure forms, ... Plants A leaf’s geometry determines whether it falls far from its tree By Bethany Brookshire May 13, 2025.

Solar cell shading an issue for plant growth Opaque solar cells are known to induce shade avoidance syndrome in plants. This can cause morphological adaptations, including changes in chlorophyll ...

So, Lam’s team developed their own, custom-built imaging platform. The cells that star in the team’s wall-building video were protoplasts of Arabidopsis, a small flowering plant belonging to ...

Once inside the leaf (Fig. 1), microplastics move through spaces between plant cells and can also accumulate inside tiny hair-like structures, called trichomes, on the surface of leaves.

Nankai University researchers have found that plant leaves can directly absorb microplastics ... Tiny plastic particles can amplify pollutant absorption in plants and intestinal cells. Feb 11, 2025.
