The cause of swelling on one side of the body can be a side effect of medication. Another cause could be from edema which is a build-up of excess fluids in the body.

How stomata reacts with water?

When light hits the stomata it activates photosynthetic K+ pumps. These cells pump potassium ions into the guards cell around the stomata. Water is attracted to the potassium ions and thus enters the guards cells. This causes the guard cells to swell, but the rigidity of the one side causes that side to bow inwards, this creates an opening for gases to exchange in the leaf. This opening is the stomata. When water is not present, the stomata will not open.
