Is a guard cell a tissue a organ or a cell?

A guard cell is a type of cell found in the epidermis of plant leaves. It is not a tissue or an organ; rather, it is a specialized cell responsible for regulating the opening and closing of stomata to control gas exchange and water loss in plants.


What is the function of a vacuole in a Guard Cell?

Vacuoles in guard cells help regulate the movement of water and ions in and out of the cell, which in turn affects the opening and closing of the stomata. The vacuole can change its volume to control the turgidity of the guard cell, leading to the opening and closing of the stomatal pore for gas exchange.


Fwho first discovered cell and that year was he born?

He was born 1967 and the year the first cell was made was in 1457


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 is the cell membrane referred to?

Plasma membrane.The cell membrane also called the plasma membrane or plasmalemma is the biological membrane separating the interior of a cell from the outside environment.
