Why are most of the stomata on the bottom of the leaf
larisa86 [58]

Answer: Stomata plays very crucial roles in plants. During photosynthesis, gas exchange takes place via the stomata. Water also evaporates from plants through the stomata. In plants, most of the stomata are usually on the bottom of the leaf IN ORDER TO PREVENT EXCESSIVE LOSS OF WATER.

During the day, the sunlight falls on the leaf directly and draws water from the plants. Locating the stomata at the underside of the leave reduces the amount of water that can be lost through excessive evaporation. Also, locating the stomata on the underside of leaves prevent  the leaves from taking in too much water during rainfall.
