close
Opening and closing of stomata is regulated by concentration of water in guard cells. When transpiration is required, water reaches the guard cells and they swell up. This opens the stomata's pore. When they are not required to be opened, water is not present in guard cells and they shrink causing stomata's pore to close.
They close to conserve water.

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.
Plant cells would need to close or partially close their stomata during times of water stress, such as drought, to prevent excessive water loss through transpiration. Closing the stomata also helps conserve water by reducing the entry of harmful pathogens or pollutants into the plant.
The guard cells open and close the stomata as needed.
no
Stomata open due to a decrease in water content inside guard cells, causing them to become turgid and curve outward. This creates an opening for gas exchange. Stomata close when the water content in guard cells increases, causing them to become limp and close the opening to prevent water loss.
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.
Guard cells would close the stomata to prevent excess water loss through transpiration, normally when the weather is extremely hot or there is a lack of ground water. This is a regulatory mechanism to prevent dehydration.
Stomata close under strong sunlight to prevent excessive water loss through transpiration and to protect the plant from drying out. Closing the stomata reduces the amount of water vapor that can escape from the leaf surface, helping the plant conserve water.
