Abstract

The results of this study showed the clear substance of the leaves, which was characterized by its abundance in some of the species under study, and the chemical compounds was identified using the technique of chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS). It has been investigated that these species are rich in secondary metabolic compounds, ranging from terpenes, phenols, steroids, acids, vitamins, alkanes, alkaloids and esters. A compound was distinguished by the different times of its appearance, and it was repeated repeatedly at different times. The anatomical study dealt with some of the characteristics of the stomata and the guardian cells of the leaf epidermis of some of the studied species. It studied the stomata complexes and characterized the stomata as being of the Anisocytic and Anomotetracytic types of the Rumex vesicarius type and similar to the surface stomata of the plant Savignya parifere of the Anomotetracytic and Anomotetracytic plant, while the surface stomata complex was underground of the plant Convolvulus pilosellifolius.
