does an epidemis in a monocot stem contain stomata?
1 answer
Yes, an epidermis in a monocot stem may contain stomata. Stomata are small openings present in the epidermis of the plant that are responsible for gas exchange and transpiration. They are present in both monocots and dicots, although the arrangement and distribution may differ. In the monocot stem, the stomata are usually present in the epidermis on both sides of the leaf.
