"Stoma" comes from Greek, meaning: mouth. It usually indicates openings, sometimes other than mouths.
A stoma is a surgically created opening on the abdomen which allows stool or urine to exit the body.
Stoma is also the name for small openings on the underside of leaves that facilitate transpiration.
