Changes in the osmotic potential of gaurd cells make that stomata open or closed
it is closed so no further water can be lost
Plants that fix CO2 into organic acids at night when the stomata are open and carry out the Calvin cycle during the day when the stomata are closed are called CAM (Crassulacean Acid Metabolism) plants. CAM plants have adapted their carbon fixation process to avoid water loss during the day by keeping stomata closed, and perform photosynthesis during the night when conditions are cooler and less water loss occurs.
They are usually closed during these periods so that they wont loose any water because of transpiration.
The stomata better be open so that plenty of carbon dioxide diffuses into the leaf and feeds into the Calvin cycle and makes sugars, specifically glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate.

Open stomata allow for the exchange of gases, such as carbon dioxide and oxygen, between the plant and the environment. Closed stomata restrict this exchange, helping to regulate the amount of water loss and gas exchange in plants.
Stomata are generally open during the day when light is available for photosynthesis and closed at night to conserve water and prevent excessive transpiration. If the temperature is not very hot, stomata may remain open longer during the day to allow for increased gas exchange for photosynthesis.
No, plants require open stomata to take in carbon dioxide for photosynthesis. Without the exchange of gases through the stomata, the plant cannot produce food efficiently.
A plant's stomata are generally open during the day to allow for the exchange of gases like carbon dioxide and oxygen needed for photosynthesis. They are closed at night to prevent water loss through transpiration when photosynthesis is not occurring.
Plants that fix CO2 into organic acids at night when the stomata are open and carry out the Calvin cycle during the day when the stomata are closed are called CAM (Crassulacean Acid Metabolism) plants. CAM plants have adapted their carbon fixation process to avoid water loss during the day by keeping stomata closed, and perform photosynthesis during the night when conditions are cooler and less water loss occurs.
The three processes that stop when stomata are closed are photosynthesis, transpiration, and gas exchange. Stomata are small openings on the surface of leaves that regulate the movement of gases into and out of the plant. When stomata are closed, these processes are significantly reduced or halted.
They are usually closed during these periods so that they wont loose any water because of transpiration.

Guard cells are able to control how open or closed stomata are by changing shape. The gas exchange occurs when stomata are open facilitates photosynthesis
