Solution

The correct option is C Only I and III

Stomata are meant for the gaseous exchange but are also the main source of transpiration. Each stomata is surrounded by two small but specialized green epidermal cells called guard cell. In most of the plants, the guard cells are kidney or bean-shaped in outline. The concave-convex curvature of two guard cells is variable and causes the stomatal pore to open and close.

So, the correct option is C.
