The gaurd cell in the stomata contain chloroplsts and uneven cell wall to create a pore on being turgid.
Stomata for plural, and stoma for singular... Stoma/stomata is a guard cell and it also serves as an opening. source: Biology class... ^^,
Guard cells, located in the epidermis of leaves, contain the most chloroplasts per cell. They are responsible for controlling the opening and closing of leaf stomata for gas exchange and contribute to photosynthesis.
Usually, the stomata is the hole in the middle of a guard/s cell, underneath a leaf of a plant.
guard cells
To regulate opening and closing of stomata
Gaurd cells help in opening and closing of stomata
A chain of events leads to an increase in the concentration of sugar in the cell sap in the vacuole of guard cell. osmotic potential of cell sap decreases and guard cells withdraw water from the neighboring cells. this increases turgid pressure of the guard cells it swells up.the swelling of the outer wall causes the guard cells to curve away from each other so increases the gap between them stomata opens). and when guard cells lose water, they become flaccid and comes closer thus stomata closes.
The cell wall of a guard cell provides structural support and aids in regulating the opening and closing of the stomata. The chloroplasts in the guard cells enable photosynthesis to occur, producing the energy needed for the regulation of water and gas exchange through the stomata. Together, these components help the stomata function by controlling the uptake of carbon dioxide for photosynthesis and the release of oxygen and water vapor.
The guard cell of stomata look like a balloon when it is turgid. Two such cells form the pore of the stomata. When both guard cells of a stomata are deflated by exo-osmosis the stomatal pore is closed.
The guard cells of stomata alone contains chloroplast.
Guard cells, which are specialized cells that surround the stomata, are responsible for adjusting the size of the stomatal pore. When the guard cells take up or release water, they change shape and control the opening and closing of the stomata.
A guard cell is a type of cell found in the epidermis of plant leaves. It is not a tissue or an organ; rather, it is a specialized cell responsible for regulating the opening and closing of stomata to control gas exchange and water loss in plants.
