Their stomata during the day!.
Yes, during a drought, plants close their stomata to conserve water and prevent excessive water loss through transpiration. This helps the plant maintain its hydration levels and survive the dry conditions.
stomata
At night, the leaves of C3 plants close their stomata and wait until the sunlight. For CAM plants, this is when the plants open their stomata and allow the carbon dioxide to come in.

The guard cells flank the stomata and are the means by which the stomata are opened and closed. To take in CO2 and to expel O2 and water. Can close to conserve water if needed and this process usually happens at night when photosynthesis, the light reaction, is suspended.
To allow gases to diffues in and out of their leaves, down a concentration gradient. Stomata can open and close. This is control by the adjacent guard cells on either side. Stomata will close when it's windy so as not to lose too much water vapour.
Plants can close their stomata to reduce water loss during times of stress using mechanisms like the accumulation of ions that cause osmotic changes, as well as the production of abscisic acid which signals stomatal closure. Additionally, certain plants, like succulents and CAM plants, have specialized adaptations that allow them to limit water loss by keeping their stomata closed during the day and opening them at night.
Simply oxygen or carbon di oxide stop coming in. But the extra gases that need to be given out are simply diffused out through cuticle or other epidermal layers.
Guard cells form the stomata. They can open and close to regulate the exchange of gases such as oxygen and carbon dioxide, as well as control water loss in plants.
Yes, in hot and dry weather, stomata close to prevent excessive water loss through transpiration. Closing the stomata helps plants conserve water and maintain optimal internal conditions for photosynthesis.
