Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The stomata on a plant's leaf control the exchange of gases, and are surrounded by guard cells that can open and close to regulate water loss through transpiration.

Together, these structures help to conserve water in a plant by regulating transpiration and limiting evaporation from the leaf surface.
