In This Video Lecture You Will Learn Basic Concept Of Mechanism Of Opening And Closing Of stomata

About This Channel.....................

I make these videos cause I love to draw and connect the complexity of science and medicine into art. I'm not saying. I'm 100% correct in all my videos, but I do try to obtain the information from credible sources.
One-stop destination for all biology lectures.
_ students in class 11, 12 or appearing for competitive medical exams ( NMDCAT ) will find it very beneficial
_ The videos are categories under various heading to make the students life simplified

sir hamesha hr topic ko simple or easy khty h hyna😊😊

[alihassankhan]

Every difficult topic became easy after mery bachy...

[hafsaslam]

Kaash apmere college me bio ky teacher hoty
College waly sir bhi achy han
But yeh unit to kisi ne parhaya hi ni
But you taught me
You are the best

[Kidspoem]

Sir ap parhany ka tariqa bht acha hai❤❤

[durga]

You made the concept easiest thankyou so much sir ❤❤❤❤

[BIONIC_EMPIRE]

u are awesome sir g i dont understand from many teacher but u are the one i learn thnx sir long live u
😊😊😊

[Arslankhan-elew]

Thankss sir AP ki wajha sy he hum bio pass kr saky gay thankss

[alikatpaal]

Co2 should be low where inside cell or in environment ? During potassium influx?

[munirahmad]

Bundle of thx, Sir can you tell me Long questions Of chptr 2, 8, 7 and 14(Plant portion) Please??

[servant_ofAllah]

Sir please stationary kam use kia kry btw great excellence of teaching ❤️
