Answer:

  • Main Difference-Upper Epidermis vs Lower Epidermis:
  • Upper and lower epidermis are the two outermost layers of a leaf, which are found in the upper and the lower surfaces, respectively. Leaves are the major structure of plants involved in the production of food by photosynthesis.
  • The cells of the leaves consist of photosynthetic pigments such as chlorophyll to capture energy from sunlight. Inorganic molecules are used to produce simple carbohydrates by this energy.
  • Since leaves are the center of photosynthesis, the anatomy of the leaves is built in such a way to facilitate photosynthesis.
  • The structure of upper and lower epidermis aid the process of photosynthesis. Moreover, both types of epidermis help to maintain the water balance of the plant.
  • The main difference between upper epidermis and lower epidermis is that upper epidermis possesses a cuticle layer whereas lower epidermis possesses a large number of stomata.
