Solution
The correct option is D Stomata.
Stomata are tiny microscopic openings or pores in plant tissue that allow for gas exchange. Stomata are typically found in plant leaves but can also be found in some stems.
Specialized cells known as guard cells surround stomata and function to open and close stomatal pores.
Stomata open and close to allow the intake of carbon dioxide and the release of oxygen.
