This is to prevent water loss by the trees. Under drought or dry conditions, plants may close their stomata to limit the amount of water that evaporates from their leaves a process called transpiration. In this process water diffuses through the stomata into the atmosphere, in a bid to preserve water plants may close their stomata, especially during very dry climates.

The meaningful differences between organisms in a population are genetic. Variations in the genome of members of a population arise through mutation. Occasionally, a mutation occurs in an individual that is beneficial, that helps that organism be better able to survive and repoduce in its current environment.

Hope this helps. Good luck! :)
