Describe the structure of leaf stoma. How do guard cells control the openings or closings of stomata? How K+ regulate the shape of guard cells?
The structure is shaped like 2 horizontal lines that can be curved depending on if the cell is turgid. K+ regulates the shape as it must be opened to allow it in and closed to keep it in.

Explain the process of cation exchange. How does it work for plant root to get minerals?
The soil, for one reason or another, is negatively charged. The H+ that plants love so much is positively charged making a great bargaining tool with the soil.
