Experiment to investigate the relationship between the number of stomatal pores on the upper and the lower surfacesof the leaves of a mesophyte plant and the rate of transpiration from those surfaces. The aim of the experiment The aim of the experiment is to investigate how the number of stomatal pores is related to the rate at which water is lost from the leaves. A mesophyte plant is chosen and the comparison is between the upper and the lower surfaces of its leaves. Experimental hypothesis Taking into account the relative background scientific Information, it is expected to be proven that the rate of transpiration from a leaf of a plant is proportional to the number of stomatal pores on the surface of that leaf. Null hypothesis Negative results would be to establish that the transpiration rate is inversely proportional to the number of stomatal pores or is not affected by it whatsoever. Introduction Water is...
