Solution

The correct option is A Chloroplasts
The stomata has specialized cells known as guard cells surrounded by the epidermal cell. Guard cells in contrast to other epidermal cells lack chloroplasts. The presence of chloroplasts in guard cells is important for the activity of guard cells in regulating opening and closing of stomatal pores.
