Finding Stomata

Mr. Andersen demonstrates how to find and observe stomata in dicot and monocot leaves using a microscope. He explains the role of stomata and guard cells in regulating water and gas exchange. The process involves using clear fingernail polish to create an impression of the leaf's epidermal cells, which is then observed under a microscope. The video covers the materials needed, preparation steps, and differences in stomata arrangement between dicots and monocots.
