Why are there more stomata on the bottoms of leaves?

Answer 1

This is because, to prevent water loss. If the stomata were on the upper side of the leaf, it would be in direct contact with the sun, which would absorb all the water from the leaf, when the stomata is open (which is around 9am and 3pm). This would not be essential for the leaf, as it would not be able to photosynthesise, hence, unable to respire, therefore, would die due to a lack of food and energy.

Answer 2

Because the stomata are what the leaves use to breathe. They are located on the bottom of the leaf so that the plant won't lose all of its moisture through evaporation by the sunlight.

The sun will not absorb the stomata.

Answer 3

Stomata are more abundant on the lower surface of leaves due to factors such as reduced light intensity and lower temperatures, which help minimize water loss through transpiration. Placing stomata on the lower surface also reduces exposure to external factors like dust and pollutants, helping to maintain efficient gas exchange within the leaf.

Answer 4

so they can absorb more carbon dioxide than do in the upper layer to produce glucose for the plants."

Also that can

Answer 5

Stomata is used as away for plants to release O2 and take in CO2. Pants have their stomata under their leaves because the top is made of chlorophyll and that's where it gets its energy.

Answer 6

so as to avoid direct exposure to the sun. so as to minimize the rate of transpiration.

Answer 7

Stomata are found on the underside of leaves so the nplant does not lose water and die.

Answer 8

Because they don't get as much oxygen as the top of leaves. Plus the bottom of the leaves are more moist than the top side of the leaf which allows more water to enter the guard cells.
