• Stomata are microscopic pores or openings on a leaf's surface.
• Stomata are essential for the exchange of gases and photosynthesis. They regulate the rate of transpiration by simply changing the vents.

The function of stomata:-

• It helps in the removal of surplus water from the plant through transpiration.

• By opening and shutting in response to the climate, it regulates the moisture balance.
• Water does not escape through pores while the stomata are closed at night.
