Potomageton natans is an aquatic plant and its leaves are floating on water. The upper surface of leaf being away from water has stomata for gaseous exchange from air, the lower surface remains in contact with water, therefore, stomata are present on the upper surface of these leaves.
What else can I help you with?
Where does most transpiration occur in a leaf?
On the bottom of the leaves. This is because Stomata, the place in the leaf were gaseous exchanges of water and carbon dioxide occur, are more common in this part of the leaf compared to the top of the leaf. This is an adaption, because if plants had all of their stomata on the top of their leaves, excessive loss of water will be lost to the environment and cause dehydration of the plant and even potential death.
Why does duckweed have stomata on the top surface of the leaf?
Duckweed has stomata on the top surface of the leaf to minimize water loss and prevent desiccation. By having stomata on the upper surface, duckweed can control gas exchange while reducing exposure to dry and windy conditions.
Where are the stomata located on the lower surface of a leaf?
The stomata are located on the lower surface of a leaf.

Do lotus leaf have stomata?
Yes, lotus leaves have stomata, but they are located on the upper surface of the leaf rather than the lower surface. This unique positioning helps reduce water loss through transpiration while still allowing for gas exchange.

Where are the stomata located on the lower surface of a leaf?
The stomata are located on the lower surface of a leaf.
