1. Guard cells have chloroplast, epidermal cells do not have.
2. Guard cells are much smaller than the epidermal cells.
3. The cell walls of guard cells are not uniform, inner walls are thicker than the outer walls. epidermal cells are unformly thin.

What is the biggest difference between the cells of domain eukarya and the other two domains?
Cells in the Eukarya have a nucleus. The others don't.
Which of the following is a difference between neurons and cells from other organ systems?
neurons have nissl bodies
How plants open and close the 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.
What organelles do the guard cells contain that the surrounding epidermal cells do not?
Guard cells contain specialized organelles called chloroplasts, which are responsible for photosynthesis. These chloroplasts enable guard cells to produce sugars and other molecules needed for energy. The surrounding epidermal cells, on the other hand, do not typically contain chloroplasts as they are not directly involved in photosynthesis.
What is the chemical difference between stroma and the cytoplasm?
A "stoma" is singular, whereas "stomata" is plural. Each guard cell is surrounded by two guard cells which are specialized parenchyma cells. Imagine that the guard cells are like two longish, curved balloons tied together at each end. (Each guard cell is like one of these balloons). If the balloons are both filled with air, they curve away from each other, creating a hole in the middle (a stoma). However, if the two balloons are not filled with air, they are pressed tightly together. (Guard cells are pressed tightly together by the surrounding parenchyma cells). During the day, sunlight causes the chloroplasts within the guard cells to produce sugar. (Guard cells contain more chloroplasts than surrounding parenchyma cells). Sugar builds up within the guard cells. By osmosis, water is drawn into the guard cells from the surrounding parenchyma cells, causing the guard cells to swell and close the stomata. This prevents water loss from the leaf during the heat of the day. At night, the sugar is used up, the water within the guard cells passes out of the guard cells, and the stomata open for transpiration and gas exchange: Carbon dioxide, oxygen and water vapour pass in and out of the leaves through the stomata. (Most stomata are found on the leaves of most plants, though cactus have them on their stems - because the leaves of cactus are the needles).
What is the difference between a human nerve cell and plant guard cell?
Human nerve cells allows information from the brain to be carried to other parts of the body BUT plant guard cells allows the amount of oxygen to enter the stomata.
What is a difference between the brains of human and other mammals?
billions of cells.
What can guard cells do that other epidermal cells cant?
they can save other chloraplasm
What do you see when guard cells engage in photosynthesis?
You see four giant cells trying to hump each other, the scientific term for this prehabiluynar or para sophinca. The term hump is used to show relationships between the pair of cells in multiple cases guard cells that seem to be mating with each other.
What is the difference between a jeweler and a jailer?
One of them sells watches, and the other watches cells.
What is the biggest difference between the cells of domain eukarya and the other two domains?
Cells in the Eukarya have a nucleus. The others don't.
What is the difference between a unicellular organism and a multicellular?
one has many cells and the other has one cell! :-)
Which of the following is a difference between neurons and cells from other organ systems?
neurons have nissl bodies

What is the difference between male and female cells?
In humans and most (if not all) other eukaryote species, males have the karyotype XY in their chromosomes, and females have the genotype XX.
What is the difference between plant cells and animal cells that give animal cells the ability to move?
Animals have different forms of specialization that allow them to have muscle cells and other cells that aid movement.
What is the difference between the army national guard and the national guard or is there any?
There are actually two National Guards, but when people say the National Guard they are probably (but not necessarily) talking about the Army National Guard. The other National Guard is the Air National Guard which is to the Air Force what the Army National Guard is to the Army.
