Correct Answer: leaf margin


Solution : The correct option is the leaf margin.

Water stomata, also known as hydathodes, are specialised apertures on the surfaces of leaves that allow liquid water to escape. These structures are in charge of the guttation process, in which excess water is expelled from the plant during periods of excessive humidity or in the early morning when root pressure is strong enough to drive water out of the leaf margins.
