Which of the following facilitates opening of stomatal aperture?
-
- Decrease in turgidity of guard cells
- Radial orientation of cellulose microfibrils in the cell wall of guard cells
- Longitudinal orientation of cellulose microfibrils in the cell wall of guard cells
- Contraction of outer wall of guard cells
Correct Option: B
Cellulose microfibrils are arranged radially rather than longitudinally which makes easy for the stomata to open.
