Solution

The correct option is B Water loss
Stomata is a pore, found on the underside of leaves, that facilitates gas exchange.
Water vapor diffuses through the stomata into the atmosphere in a process called transpiration.
Therefore in deserts, to minimize loss of water through transcription, plants have few stomata.
