the underside of the leaf loses water much faster
The stomata are located on the lower surface of a leaf.
There are about 92 stomatas on upper surface and 39 stomatas on the lower surface. In a dorsiventral leaf number of stomata is more on the lower surface hence the above answer may please be verified
small pores have on the leaves excess water transfer into the atomospehere incase there have have no the stomata (pores) on the leaf the plant will die.must the plant can must drain the water.So the stomata exist upper surface of the water.
The lower surface of the leaf has the stomata. You can see the reason for this if you cut a leaf in half from upper side to lower side. The upper portion of the leaf consists of tightly packed cells that are full of chloroplasts for taking in light. The lower half of the leaf is made up of loosely arranged cells. This allows room for air to enter the lower part of the leaf through the stomata and contribute carbon dioxide and take away oxygen. The upper surface of the leaf is covered by the cuticle which prevents dehydration, as such the stomata cannot be located or function on the upper surface
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.
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.
The stomata are located on the lower surface of a leaf.
From what I know about plants, the leaves have stoma in the bottom layer. Stoma are holes, through which excess water moves out of during transpiration The weather, humidity, water potential gradients and temperature all affect transpiration rates.

because clorophyll is there

because the leaf is non polar or Because the leaf is coated in lipid molecules

When a leaf is held below hot water, the heat can cause the stomata (tiny openings on the leaf surface) to open, leading to increased transpiration. As water vapor escapes, you may observe condensation forming on the surface of the leaf, especially if the surrounding air is cooler. Additionally, the heat may cause any waxy or hydrophobic layers on the leaf to become more pronounced, affecting how water interacts with the leaf surface.
The underside of leaves is where the 'stomata' are to be found in most (not all) plants and it is through these stomata that the gas exchange occurs. The upper surfaces of leaves are usually tough and shiny to protect the leaf and shed water. If the stomata were on the upper surface and the leaf was wet, the water would block them and impede gas exchange.
Underside the leaf to conserve water, because if they are exposed to the sun, they can lose water very easily. This prevents excessive transpiration.
it is the outer most layer of the leave and so covers the leave surface except at the stomata
