Stomata open and close in response to environmental cues such as light intensity, carbon dioxide levels, and water availability. During photosynthesis, stomata open to allow for gas exchange, and they close to conserve water during times of drought or darkness. Hormones like abscisic acid and cytokinins also play a role in regulating stomatal movement.

Plant cells would need to close or partially close their stomata during times of water stress, such as drought, to prevent excessive water loss through transpiration. Closing the stomata also helps conserve water by reducing the entry of harmful pathogens or pollutants into the plant.
