Select the correct mechanism of stomatal opening and closing.A) The radial orientation of cellulose microfibrils in the cell wal
NNADVOKAT [17]

Answer:

A) The radial orientation of cellulose microfibrils in the cell walls of guard cells causes them to bow outward and open when the stomatal pore when turgid.

Explanation:

Stomata are pores on the surface of leaves that work as valves controlling the gas exchange in plants; they are bordered by a pair of curved guarded cells in charge of opening and closing by increasing or decreasing the stomatal pore area.

Guard cells walls structure consist of a combination of stiff cellulose microfibrils oriented along the circumference of the cells and a softer matrix material which makes it possible for stomata pore to open by increasing water pressure (turgor).  

Option B states that when guard cells become turgid, they close the stomata. This is a false statement as we explained before.

Option C states that light (known stimulant for opening stomata) causes guard cells to become flaccid which is also false. Guard cells become turgid in order to open the stomatal pore.

Option A is correct.
