In guard cells when sugar is converted into starch, the stomatal pore:

1. closes completely
2. opens partially
3. opens fully
4. remains unchanged

Correct answer: closes completely

Solution

When sugar is converted into starch, the concentration of dissolved solutes in guard cells decreases. Water then leaves the cells, turgor pressure falls, and the stomatal pore closes completely.
