Considering the isobilateral nature of most monocot leaves, how does the distribution of stomata differ from that of a typical dorsiventral dicot leaf?
Stomata are absent in monocot leaves.
Stomata are only present on the upper surface in monocots.
Stomata are relatively evenly distributed on both surfaces in monocots, while they are predominantly on the lower surface in dicots.
Stomata are clustered around the vascular bundles in monocots.
