Answer :-
☆ Stomatal pores in plants regulate the amount of water and solutes within them by opening and closing theirguard cells using osmotic pressure. In order for plants to produce energy and maintain cellular function, their cellsundergo the highly intricate process of photosynthesis. Critical in this process is the stoma.

The opening and closing of stomatal pore is a function of guard cells. Stomata act as turgor operated valves.The guard cells are thicker on the inner side and thinner on the outer side. The guard cells swell when water flow into them from the surrounding epidermal cells. They get curved out due to thick inner walls and produce a pore in between. Similarly, the pore closes when guard cells lose water to their surrounding cells and shrink back to their original position.
