Calculation of molar mass of glucose (C6H12O6) The molar mass of glucose can be calculated from the molar masses of individual atoms present in it. From the molecular formula, C6H12O6, one can find there are 6 carbon atoms, 12 hydrogen atoms and 6 oxygen atoms in one molecule of glucose.
Guard cells are cells surrounding each stoma. They help to regulate the rate of transpiration by opening and closing the stomata.
Although most of the cells of the lower epidermis resemble those of the upper epidermis, each stoma is flanked by two sausage-shaped cells called guard cells. These differ from the other cells of the lower epidermis not only in their shape but also in having chloroplasts.
