Answer:

Guard cells

Explanation:

  • The guard cells surround the stomata and help to control the opening and closing of stomata thus, affecting the rate of transpiration.
  • The guard cells become swollen as they acquire potassium ions and thus, the stomatal opening becomes large. This leads to a drop in the water potential of the guard cell thus allowing the water to move in.
  • When these guard cells lose water they become flaccid and the stomatal opening is closed.
  • Thus, the guard cells control the opening and closing of the stomata to regulate gas and water exchange.
