give one example of plant exhibiting bulliform cells in its leaves?
Dear student,
Please find below the solution to the asked query
Bulliform cells are the large thin-walled, empty cells that occur in the epidermis of many grass leaves and that by their turgor changes cause rolling and unrolling of the leaves thus regulating water loss. when bulliform cells are flaccid, the leaves of grass close as the two sides of the blade fold up toward each other. Once adequate water is available, the leaves open again. When folded, the leaves are less exposed to sunlight, so they are heated less which prevents water loss.
For example, Grass plants like Agrostis stolonifera etc.
Hope this information will clear your doubts about the Bulliform cells.
