Vedclass · Answer

(A) Stomata are microscopic pores found on the epidermis of leaves and stems that facilitate gas exchange and transpiration. In submerged hydrophytes (plants that grow entirely underwater),stomata are completely absent because gas exchange occurs directly through the general body surface via diffusion. In contrast,desert plants (xerophytes) have sunken stomata to reduce water loss,and floating plants have stomata present only on the upper surface of their leaves.
