Hey... HERE IS YOUR ANSWER....!!!
What Is the Function of Plant Stomata?
Stomata are tiny openings or pores in plant tissue that allow for gas exchange. Stomata are typically found in plant leaves but can also be found in some stems. Specialized cells known as guard cells surround stomata and function to open and close stomatal pores. Stomata allow a plant to take in carbon dioxide, which is needed for photosynthesis. They also help to reduce water loss by closing when conditions are hot or dry. Stomata look like tiny mouths which open and close as they assist in transpiration.
The two main functions of stomata are to allow for the uptake of carbon dioxide and to limit the loss of water due to evaporation. In many plants, stomata remain open during the day and closed at night. Stomata are open during the day because this is when photosynthesis typically occurs. In photosynthesis, plants use carbon dioxide, water, and sunlight to produce glucose, water, and oxygen. Glucose is used as a food source, while oxygen and water vapor escape through open stomata into the surrounding environment. Carbon dioxide needed for photosynthesis is obtained through open plant stomata. At night, when sunlight is no longer available and photosynthesis is not occurring, stomata close. This closure prevents water from escaping through open pores.

Answer:
Stomata are small, microscopic, and necessary for photosynthesis. Thousands of them dot the surface of the plants.
Explanation:
- Stomata are commonly found in plant leaves but can also be found in some stems. Specialized cells known as guard cells cover stomata and process to open and close stomatal pores
- The two primary functions of stomata exist to permit the uptake of carbon dioxide and to limit the loss of water due to evaporation. In many plants, stomata stay open during the daytime and closed at night. Stomata are open during the day because this exists when photosynthesis normally happens. In photosynthesis, plants utilize carbon dioxide, water, and sunlight to create glucose, water, and oxygen. Glucose exists utilized as a food source, while oxygen and water vapor exit through open stomata into the surrounding atmosphere. Carbon dioxide required for photosynthesis is acquired via open plant stomata. At night, when daylight exists no longer available and photosynthesis exists not occur, stomata close. This closure contains water from escaping via open pores.
