Opening and closing depend on potassium ion exchange theory

Answer»

Guard cells are cells surrounding each stoma. They HELP to regulate the rate of transpiration by opening and closing the stomata. ... Notice that in figure A the guard cells are turgid, or swollen, and the stomatal opening is large. This turgidity is CAUSED by the ACCUMULATION of K+ (POTASSIUM ions) in the guard cells.
