Correct option (b) Change in turgor pressure of guard cells
Explanation :
When the guard cells become rurgid, the stomata open. On the other hand, if the guard cells loose water, these become flaccid, the inner wails sag and the pore closes.
Thus, stomatal movement occurs due to changes in turgor pressure of guard cells.
