Best answer

Correct option (b) Endosmosis

Explanation:

The entry of water into a cell when placed in less concentrated solution is called endosmosis. Due to increase in osmotic pressure and diffusion pressure deficit of guard cells endosmosis of water from the surrounding epidermal and mesophyll cells takes place into the guard cells. The guard cells swell and the stomata open.
