Their function is to open and close the leaf pores.
Guard cells play a crucial role in regulating transpiration and preventing wilting in plants. They control the opening and closing of stomata, small pores on the surface of leaves. When the guard cells uptake water, they swell and the stomata open, allowing gas exchange for photosynthesis and transpiration. Conversely, when guard cells lose water, they shrink and close the stomata, preventing excessive water loss and wilting.
Plant wilting occurs after excessive loss of water by transpiration and lesser absorption by the roots. The deficiency of water in the cells make them flaccid and the plant wilts.
As in animals, plant cells have specialized functions such as water absorption (roots), photosynthesis (chloroplasts), and transpiration (guard cells). The shape, size, and composition of each cell has to provide the necessary characteristics for its function.
stomate are opening on the underside of a leaf. They are controlled by guard cells. When guard cells are turgid they stomate open and transpiration occurs when they are flaccid they close to retain water and prevent loss of water by transpiration
Guard cells in the lower epidermis are the only cells with chloroplasts in a leaf because they play a crucial role in regulating gas exchange and water loss through the stomata. Chloroplasts allow guard cells to photosynthesize and produce sugars, which provide the energy needed for stomata opening and closing. This specialization ensures efficient control over transpiration and photosynthesis in leaves.
this is my question what is the function of t-cells?

it helps it by gtowing a new leaf
During day time when transpiration occurs watering of plants removes the air from the soil and in the abscence of oxygen root cells can not respire aerobically, hence uptake of water is affected. When the loss of water due to transpiration is not compensated by absorption of water by the roots, wilting is observed in these plants.
The function of the guard cells are that they help to regulate the rate of transpiration by opening and closing the stomata thus preventing excessive water loss.

plant cells
The stoma opens and closes to allow gas exchange. The Guard cells are located around the stoma and regulate the opening and closing of the stoma.
Yes
Transpiration occurs at the stoma.
