The role of mimosa

There are many common plants in our lives, and plants also have their own functions. Therefore, before choosing plants, you need to have a good understanding of the plants, so that when using them, you know how they can help human health. So what are the functions of mimosa? Many people don’t know much about this. This type of plant also has a very helpful effect on human health.

So what are the functions of mimosa? It is very helpful in treating some diseases. However, it should be noted that you cannot choose it casually, otherwise it will cause great harm to your health.

Functions of Mimosa :

Mimosa is a wonderful plant that can predict changes in weather conditions. If you touch it with your hand, its leaves close quickly and open slowly, which means the weather will turn sunny; if you touch the mimosa and its leaves shrink slowly, droop slowly, or even close slightly and then open again, this means the weather will turn from sunny to cloudy or it is about to rain.

The speed of opening and closing of mimosa leaves can predict the weather, mainly because there is a small drum-shaped thin-walled cell tissue at the neck of the mimosa leaf - the leaf pad. The leaf pad is full of water. When you touch the mimosa leaf with your hand, the leaf vibrates, and the water in the cells at the bottom of the leaf pad immediately flows upward and to both sides, so that the lower part of the leaf pad deflates, while the upper part bulges, the petiole droops, and the leaf closes. Therefore, the closing and opening of leaves is caused by the turgor pressure of the leaf pad. The turgor effect of leaf mattress is closely related to the humidity in the air. When the air humidity is very low, the turgor effect of leaf mattress is obvious, and the closing and opening speed of leaves are fast; when the air humidity is very high, the opening and closing speed of leaves is slow. Therefore, the speed at which the leaves of the mimosa open and close indirectly reflects the humidity in the air and can be used as a reference for weather forecasts.

Through the above introduction, we have a good understanding of the role of mimosa, so we have a good understanding of the changes of this type of plant. When such plants improve their condition, it also indicates that there are some changes in the weather. Therefore, when planting this type of plant, we need to have a good understanding of it.
