The correct Answer is:
To solve the question regarding the type of stomatal behavior in thin leaf mesophytes, we can follow these steps: ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding Stomata**: Stomata are small openings on the leaf surface that facilitate gas exchange (CO2 in, O2 out) and transpiration (water vapor loss). 2. **Identifying Stomatal Behavior**: The question specifies that in thin leaf mesophytes, the stomata open during the day and close at night. This behavior is indicative of a specific type of stomatal regulation. 3. **Analyzing the Options**: - **Barley Type**: Stomata open for a few hours during the day and close at night. - **Potato Type**: Stomata are open throughout the day and only close for a few hours at night. - **Alfalfa Type**: Stomata are open throughout the day and close at night. - **Bean Type**: Stomata open for a few hours during the day and close at night. 4. **Matching the Behavior**: The behavior described in the question (open during the day, closed at night) matches the **Alfalfa Type**. 5. **Conclusion**: Therefore, the correct answer is **Alfalfa Type** (Option 3). ### Final Answer: The stomata in most thin leaf mesophytes that open during the day and close at night come under the **Alfalfa Type**. ---
