Question
Glycolate induces opening of stomata in
Options
A.presence of oxygen
B.low CO2 concentration
C.high CO2 concentration
D.absence of CO2
Solution
Light causes photosynthesis which leads to reduction in CO2 concentrtion → synthesis of glycolate → oxidation of glycolate → ATP synthesis → activation of K+ pump → movement of K+ in guard cell → swelling of guard cell → opening of stomata.
