Explain the digestion in stomata

1.	Explain the digestion in stomata
Answer» As food reaches the end of the esophagus, it enters the stomach through a muscular valve called the lower esophageal sphincter. The stomach secretes acid and enzymes that digest food. Ridges of muscle tissue called rugae line the stomach. The stomach muscles contract periodically, churning food to enhance digestion. We all know that stomata are the tiny pores on the leaves which play a major role in the exchange of gases. The intake of carbon dioxide and the outgoing of oxygen both takes place through these pores.\xa0The respiration in leaves takes place through the tiny pores called stomata present on them. The exchange of gases occurs through these pores. The oxygen is transported to other cells of the plant by diffusion and in the same carbon dioxide is removed from the cells. In this way respiration takes place in leaves.
