In which of the following plant sunken stomata are found? (a) Nerium (b) Hydrilla (c) Mango (d) Guava
Option A Usually the stomata are placed at the same level as the adjoining epidermal cells (e.g., Helianthus, Mangifera). In xerophytes the stomata are sunken as they are located in a cupshaped depression (e.g., Nerium). It is an adaptation to reduce the loss of water in xerophytic plants.
