Stomata are present in leaves where CO2 is required for photosythesis and lenticels are pesent on woody parts of the plant to provide perforation. SINCE THE REQUIREMENT OF CO2 is more in the leafy areas, there are many stomata than the lenticels.
Stomata
In most plants stomata is usually opened on leaves to preserve water. As a result, CO2 is added during the Calvin Benson Cycle.
In most green plants the stomata are only open during the day. They allow carbon dioxide to reach the cells where the majority of photosynthesis takes place. As they also allow transpiration (water loss) the stomata of most plants close during the night when photosynthesis is not possible. There is a group of mainly desert plants known as CAM plants. These carry out a process called Crassulacean acid metabolism, which effectively allows them to store carbon dioxide in their leaves. In these plants the stomata are normally closed during the day to prevent water loss when temperatures are high, and open during the night when temperatures are lower.
In terrestrial plants, gas enters and leaves (termed "gas exchange") through cell-lined pores called "stomata." Stomata open and close in response to light and humidity, permitting oxygen, carbon dioxide and water vapor to enter and leave the plant. In most terrestrial plants, the stomata are located on the surface of the leaves, or in cacti, on the surface of the stems. In aquatic plants, gas exchange directly though the tissue surface.
Stomata are specialized cells found in plant leaves that regulate gas exchange, while mitochondria are organelles present in most eukaryotic cells, including plant cells. So, both stomata and mitochondria are not cells themselves, but rather structures found in plant cells.

Plants lose most of their water by transpiration through the stomata of the leaves.

Oh, isn't that a lovely question! Each plant is unique, just like a happy little tree. While most plants have stomata to help them breathe, the number of stomata can vary depending on the species and their environment. It's like how each person has a different number of freckles or a unique smile - nature is full of delightful surprises!

On a dorsi-ventral leaf most of the stomata are found on the lower side of the leaf, that remains away from sunlight. On an iso-bilateral leaf stomata are present on both the sides, upper as well as lower.
The pores on leaves are called stomata. Stomata are small openings that allow for gas exchange, such as the intake of carbon dioxide and the release of oxygen and water vapor. They play a crucial role in photosynthesis and transpiration in plants.
