Answer:

there are tree hypothesis

Explanation:

There are several mechanisms by which multicellularity could have evolved:

1. A group of cells were added in a slug-shaped mass called grex, which was moved as a multicellular unit, as the Myxomycota do.

2. The primitive cell suffered an incomplete division of the cell nucleus generating a cell with multiple nuclei or syncytium. Next, membranes formed around each nucleus and the space was occupied by organelles. This resulted in a group of cells connected in an organism, an observable mechanism in Drosophila.

3. Daughter cells did not separate after cell division, resulting in a conglomeration of identical cells in an organism, which later developed specialized functions. This is observed in embryos of plants, animals and colonial cyanoflagellates.

AveGali [126]

The correct answer is option C, that is, regulate water loss.  

Guard cells refer to the cells enclosing each stomata. They assist in monitoring the rate of transpiration by closing and opening the stomata. The guard cells possess the tendency to monitor the closing and opening of stomata by changing shape. The shape of the guard cells modifies on the basis of the concentration of potassium ions and water found in the cells themselves.  

The stomatal pores get closed when carbon dioxide is no longer needed for the process of photosynthesis. The guard cells swell when movement of water takes place inside these pores, and thus, the opening of stomatal pores occurs, and as water moves out, the guard cell closes. Thus, guard cells play an essential role in regulating water loss.
