Question

Name a plant in which the stomata opens during day and closes at night

Open in App
Solution

Stomata are tiny openings or pores in plant tissue that function for gas exchange. Many cacti and other succulent plants with CAM metabolism open their stomata at night and close them during the day to reduce the amount of water loss through transpiration. Thus, these plants close their stomata during the day.
