The guard cells are bean-shaped in surface view, while the epidermal cells are irregular in shape. The guard cells contain chloroplasts, so they can manufacture food by photosynthesis (The epidermal cells of terrestrial plants do not contain chloroplasts)
Do all epidermal cells contain chloroplasts?
Plant epidermal cells do not contain chloroplasts, the cellular organelles that contain the necessary chlorophyll for photosynthesis.
Why are chloroplasts absent in epidermal cells?
Chloroplasts (plant cell organelles that perform photosynthesis) are absent in epidermal cells, that means epidermis is transparent. Transparent epidermis allows maximum amount of light to pass through to the choloroplast containing palisade cells beneath so that they can perform photosynthesis efficiently.
