It varies. A green maple leaf can feel soft and smooth, whereas an orange or red autumn maple leaf can feel rough and crunchy (when it breaks in your hand). Conversely, a pine needle (which is also a leaf!) can feel prickly. And so on and so forth.
The stomata are located on the lower surface of a leaf.
Calculating leaf surface area helps estimate the total surface available for transpiration. Transpiration is the process where water is evaporated from the surface of the leaf into the atmosphere, which is important for plant cooling and nutrient uptake. By knowing the leaf surface area, we can better understand the potential transpiration rate and overall water requirements of the plant.
the waxy material in the leaf is called "CUTIN"
The upper surface of a leaf is transparent because it lacks chloroplasts which carry out photosynthesis. This allows light to pass through the upper surface and reach the chloroplast-rich cells in the lower side of the leaf where photosynthesis occurs.
The key features of simple leaf anatomy include a single blade, a main vein called the midrib, smaller veins branching out from the midrib, and a petiole that connects the leaf to the stem. The leaf is typically flat and thin, with a top surface called the adaxial surface and a bottom surface called the abaxial surface. The outer layer of the leaf is called the epidermis, which contains stomata for gas exchange and a waxy cuticle to prevent water loss.
because the leaf is non polar or Because the leaf is coated in lipid molecules
The stomata are located on the lower surface of a leaf.
The surface of the leaf that you see is the "epidermis".
why is the food-making tissue at the leaf surface why
Leaf has a flat surface inorder to absorb maximun sunlight
In most cases it is at the underside of the leaf, as it does not want sunlight to dry it up.

stomata is present on a leaf's lower surface. but in plants that float on water, stomata is present on a leaf's upper surface, and the lower surface is protected by a coating of wax.
