Through the stomata carbon dioxide diffuses into the plant and oxygen and water vapor diffuse out of the plant. Guard cells control the opening and closing of the stomata. Used in arid climates to control water loss for instance.

The Guard cells open and close the stomata
ANOTHER WAY TO SAY THIS IS BY SAYING:
The stomata is open and closed by the guard cells

What cells guard the opening and closing of the stomata?
Stomatal pores in plants regulate the amount of water and solutes within them by opening and closing their guard cells using osmotic pressure. Guard cells and adjacent subsidiary cells are involved in opening and closing of stomata.
How does stomata open?
The stomata's function is to allow gas exchange with the surrounding air, so that the plant can intake carbon dioxide and oxygen. Stomatal opening is favored when there is plentiful water and moderate temperatures. Abscissic acid, a plant hormone, acts on the guard cells to open and close stomata. Some plants are even genetically engineered with a mutated era gene, which makes them more sensitive to abscissic acid and more prone to the opening and closing of guard cells. When guard cells are full of water, they stretch away from each other and the stomata are open. When guard cells are limp, they fall on each other and the stomata are closed. Potassium ions play a role in the opening and closing of stomata by changing the concentration of ions in the guard cells. When the potassium ions are in the guard cells, water also flows in the guard cells because of osmosis and the stomata open. When the potassium ions are out of the guard cells, water also flows out of the guard cells because of osmosis and the stomata close.
How the opening and closing of leaf stomata is controlled?
The stomata are controlled by two epidermal cells called guard cells. When water flows in, the guard cells swell up and closes the stomata. When the water leaves, it becomes flaccid and opens the stomata.
Stomata open and close in response to pressure within?
guard cells
How does turgor pressure affects the opening and closing of stomata?
The stoma is "turgor operated valve". The opening and closing of stoma is regulated by the turgidity of guard cells. The stomata are open when the guard cells are turgid. On losing turgidity in guard cells, the stomata closes.
What is the role of guard cell?
Guard cells in epidermis around stomata pores helps in transpiration through stomata and exchange of gases.
How are the stomata controlled?
The stomata are controlled by two epidermal cells called guard cells. When water flows in, the guard cells swell up and closes the stomata. When the water leaves, it becomes flaccid and opens the stomata.
Which cells form the stomata?
Guard cells form the stomata.
What cells guard the opening and closing of the stomata?
Stomatal pores in plants regulate the amount of water and solutes within them by opening and closing their guard cells using osmotic pressure. Guard cells and adjacent subsidiary cells are involved in opening and closing of stomata.
What are pores surrounded by guard cells in the epidermis of a leaf?
Stomata are pores surrounded by the guard cells.

What is the relationship between guard cells and stomata?
Guard cells are cells on the edges of the stomata of a leaf. The stomata are very small pores that control water loss and keep the plant from drying out. When Abscisic Acid (ABA) - a stress hormone - is present, the Potassium ions (K+ ions) from the guard cells leave the guard cells for an unknown reason. This causes the stomata to close. Basically, guard cells assist stomata in opening/closing
Are guard cells part of the stomata or does stomata only refer to the pore on the lower surface of the leaf?
The stomata are the pores and the guard cells control the opening and closing of these pores.
What cells monitor the size of stomata?
The guard cells.
Which structure is responsible for the opening and closing of stomata?
guard cells
What regulates the stomata?
The guard cells open and close the stomata as needed.
What are the cells that surround the stomata called?
Guard Cells surround the stomata, and enable it to open or shut.
