Answer
- Diagram of opened and closed stomata are given below:

During open stomata, guard cells are turgid as they absorb water. Conversely, when stomata are closed, guard cells are flaccid as the water is drawn out.
Stomata are found mainly on the lower surface of the leaves.
Three important processes of plants in which the stomata are involved are :
- Photosynthesis
- Transpiration
- Respiration
Stomata are open during the day and closed at night.
