Carbon dioxide cannot pass through the protective waxy layer covering the leaf (cuticle), but it can enter the leaf through an opening (the stoma; plural = stomata; Greek for hole) flanked by two guard cells. Likewise, oxygen produced during photosynthesis can only pass out of the leaf through the opened stomata.
There are two types of damages that may be awarded by the court, âcompensatory,â and âpunitive.â Compensatory damages, also referred to as âactual damages,â provide a plaintiff with the amount of money necessary to restore them to the financial state they were in prior to the action, or to replace what was lost.
Persons injured by the intentional or unintentional actions of another person or entity are likely to suffer financial loss. Under some conditions, an injured party may file a personal injury claim against the offender and receive compensatory damages to compensate them for their loss or injury. Compensatory damages may include economic and/or non-economic compensation.
