water because of their reduced leaf size. Less leaf surface area results in reduced water loss through the epidermis. Small leaves have fewer stomata than larger leaves, and that adaptation also reduces water loss. Some dry-land plants have stomata only on the bottom epidermis, which further reducing water loss, and some have several layers of epidermal cell'.Succulent plants have developed multiple structural mechanisms that prevent water loss. When water is available, they absorb it through their roots and bind it in place in interior water storage cells.Coatings of wax or hairs also help prevent water loss in plants. Waxy layers can give either a sheen or dull, grayish or bluish cast to a leaf surface
