Functions of the stomata
- They allow the exchange of gases (CO2 and O2) with the atmosphere.
- Evaporation of water from the leaf surface occurs through the stomata. Thus, the stomata help in the process of transpiration.
- Based on the climatic conditions, it closes or opens its pores to maintain the moisture balance.
- Allows the intake of carbon dioxide and to give out oxygen during the process of photosynthesis.
- Stomata remains open during the day and closed at night. This closure at night prevents water from escaping through open pores
