Answer 2

This is a single layer of cells containing few or no chloroplasts. The cells are quite transferent & permit most of the light that strikes them to pass through to the underlying cells. the upper surface is covered with a waxy, water proof cuticle, which serves to reduce water loss from the leaf..
