| 1. | Osmosis is also responsible for controlling the movement of guard cells.
|
| 2. | The guard cells swell, squeezing the stomata closed.
|
| 3. | Specialized potassium efflux channels participate in mediating release of potassium from guard cells.
|
| 4. | They both consist of two large guard cells and pore, and are anomocytic.
|
| 5. | Malate is also synthesized by the carboxylation of phosphoenolpyruvate in the guard cells of plant leaves.
|
| 6. | Unlike most epidermal cells, the guard cells of plant stomata contain relatively well-developed chloroplasts.
|
| 7. | The guard mother cell then makes one symmetrical division, which forms a pair of guard cells.
|
| 8. | Chloroplasts are generally absent in epidermal cells, the exception being the guard cells of the stomata.
|
| 9. | During droughts, many plants close their stomata by directing more water into guard cells that circle the pores.
|
| 10. | The epidermis of all aerial organs, but not roots, is covered with a guard cells have chloroplasts.
