Solution

The correct option is A True
Leaf has epidermis on both of its surfaces. The photosynthetic tissue of a leaf is sandwiched between its upper and lower epidermis and is well supplied by the vascular system. In a leaf, xylem always faces the upper epidermis i.e. the adaxial side while phloem faces both upper as well as lower epidermis.
Hence, the correct answer is 'True'
