Guard cells have cell walls of varying thickness(its inner region, adjacent to the stomatal pore is thicker and highly cutinized [7]) and differently oriented cellulose microfibers, causing them to bend outward when they are turgid, which in turn, causes stomata to open. Stomata close when there is an osmotic loss of water, occurring from the ...
English: C3 and C4 plants(1) stomata stay open all day and close at night. CAM plants(2) stomata open during the morning and close slightly at noon and then open again in the morning. CAM plants(2) stomata open during the morning and close slightly at noon and then open again in the morning.
b. Closed stoma: stomata close when the turgor pressure decreases because water exits the cell. The water flows out because the K+ ions exit the cell. They flow out when the proton pump is deactivated. There are a number of signals that can cause stomata to close, these include: a rise in CO2 concentration and the hormone abscisic acid.
In botany, a stoma (pl.: stomata, from Greek στόμα, "mouth"), also called a stomate (pl.: stomates), is a pore found in the epidermis of leaves, stems, and other organs, that controls the rate of gas exchange between the internal air spaces of the leaf and the atmosphere.
In anatomy, a stoma (pl.: stomata / ˈ s t oʊ m ə t ə / or stomas) is any opening in the body. For example, a mouth , a nose , and an anus are natural stomata. Any hollow organ can be manipulated into an artificial stoma as necessary.

The buccopharyngeal membrane is created in the foregut and is perforated during the fourth week of human development, creating the primitive mouth, whereas the cloacal membrane is created in the hindgut and is perforated during the eighth week of human development, creating the primitive anus after the mouth opening has already been created. [5]
The opening thus revealed is called the stoma (meaning "mouth") and is surrounded by one or two peristomes. Each peristome is a ring of triangular "teeth" formed from the remnants of dead cells with thickened cell walls. There are usually 16 such teeth in a single peristome, separate from each other and able to both fold in to cover the stoma ...
