Write one function of valves in the walls of veins. What is the first statement of the audio clip?
Unlike arteries, veins contain valves that ensure blood flows in only one direction.
But, Arteries don't require valves because pressure from the heart is so strong that blood is only able to flow in one direction.
Valves also help blood travel back to the heart against the force of gravity.

This video explains the structure and function of stomata, which are tiny pores in the leaves of plants.
Structure:
The outermost layer of a leaf is the waxy cuticle, followed by the upper epidermis, palisade cells, spongy tissue, and the lower epidermis.
Stomata are mainly located in the lower epidermis and are surrounded by two specialized guard cells.
Function:
Stomata regulate the exchange of gases between the leaf and the atmosphere.
During the day, they open to allow carbon dioxide to enter for photosynthesis and oxygen to exit.
At night, they close to conserve water.
Regulation of Stomata Opening and Closing:
Several factors influence the opening and closing of stomata:
Biological rhythm: Stomata have an internal rhythm and open and close on a 24-hour cycle even in constant light.
Light intensity: Light triggers stomata to open, with a minimum light level required for most plants.
Carbon dioxide concentration: Low CO2 levels cause stomata to open, while high CO2 levels cause them to close.
Water balance: Wilting plants close their stomata to conserve water.
In summary, stomata are essential for gas exchange in plants. They open and close in response to various factors, allowing plants to take in carbon dioxide for photosynthesis, release oxygen, and regulate water loss.
What is the main function of stomata in leaves?
Regulate gas exchange
Absorb sunlight
Store water
Produce oxygen
What are some factors that influence stomata opening and closing?
Temperature and humidity
Light intensity and water balance
Carbon dioxide concentration and biological rhythm
Nutrient availability and wind speed

Chemosynthesis vs. Photosynthesis: Key Differences This video explores the key differences between chemosynthesis and photosynthesis, two vital processes that sustain life on Earth. Key Distinction: Light Source One crucial difference lies in the use of sunlight. Photosynthesis occurs in the presence of sunlight, while chemosynthesis takes place in darkness, primarily at the ocean floor near hydrothermal vents. Chemical Reactions: Similarities and Differences Both processes involve a series of chemical reactions that generate energy, but they differ in their specific mechanisms. Photosynthesis: Light energy is used to convert carbon dioxide and water into glucose sugar. This process releases oxygen as a byproduct. Chemosynthesis: Bacteria derive energy by oxidizing organic compounds, such as hydrogen sulfide. This energy is then used to combine carbon dioxide and water to produce sugar. Location and Extremophiles Photosynthesis: Primarily occurs above sea level in plants, although it can also happen in deep-sea plants up to 100 meters down. Leaves are the main site for photosynthesis. Chemosynthesis: Occurs thousands of meters deep in the ocean near hydrothermal vents rich in hydrogen sulfide. These extreme environments and high water pressure are where chemosynthesis thrives. Energy Source and Dependence Photosynthesis: Relies on sunlight and therefore doesn't happen at night. Chemosynthesis: Doesn't require any light source. Energy is derived from the oxidation of inorganic compounds. Impact on Life Photosynthetic organisms: Plants, algae, and bacteria play a critical role in capturing energy and releasing oxygen for life on Earth. Chemosynthetic organisms: Deep-sea creatures like shrimp, crabs, fish, and giant tube worms depend on chemosynthesis for survival in the darkest parts of the ocean. Over 300 species of marine life thrive near these hydrothermal vents. Symbiotic bacteria residing within these creatures oxidize hydrogen sulfide for energy. Rates and Byproducts Photosynthesis: The rate is influenced by factors like temperature, sunlight intensity, and carbon dioxide concentration. Chemosynthesis: The rate depends on the amount of hydrogen sulfide seeping from the vents. Byproducts: Photosynthesis releases oxygen, while chemosynthesis produces sulfur compounds as a byproduct. Similarities: Energy Production and Sugar Formation Despite their differences, both chemosynthesis and photosynthesis share some key similarities. They both: Use different energy sources to produce glucose sugar, which serves as fuel for both plants and animals. Utilize inorganic substances to obtain energy and produce organic matter.
