Why are there more stoma on the undersides of leaves than the top?
The upper surface of the leaf is (generally) covered by a waxy layer called the cuticle, this is not a living layer, making it particularly hard for stoma to operate on the upper surface. Additionally, the upper surface of the leaf is more exposed (direct sunlight and wind) meaning that rate of evaporation would be increased. Interestingly enough some species of plants when propagated in tissue culture do actually form stoma on the upper surface of the leaf, as there is no cuticle present.
