• guard cells

• dermal cells

• diffusion channels

The diffusion of water vapor out of a leaf

• transportation

• transformation

• transpiration

• translocation

The main function of stomata is to

• capture sunlight

• protect leaves from insects

• allow gases to move rapidly in/out of leaves
