Expert Answer
Assertion (A): Most of the plants close their stomata at night.
Reason (R): Closing of stomata helps to conserve water as a large amount of water evaporates from the leaves.
Answer: Both assertion and reason are true, and the reason is the correct explanation of the assertion.
Solution: Stomata are tiny pores on the underside of leaves that allow for gas exchange of oxygen and carbon dioxide and water vapour release. Most of the plants close their stomata at night. Closing of stomata helps to conserve water as a large amount of water evaporates from the leaves through transpiration.
