Solution
The answer is option (a).
Stomata are tiny openings or pores that are used for gaseous exchange. They are mostly found on the under-surface of plant leaves. Air enters the plant through these openings. The carbon dioxide from the air is taken through these tiny pores to carry out the process called photosynthesis.
