From what I have been reading, It helps concentrate or stack the loaded samples in a tight band before it's resolve in the resolving gel. Notice how when samples are loaded into wells, it sort of spans the wells, so by concentrating it before separating gives the sample a fair start. And you can have a result that shows uniformity not one that's comparing bands which started at different points. Hope this helps!

Why the pH of stacking gel and resolving gel are different?
Stacking gel has a different pH from resolving gel because stacking gel is made out of Tris?HCI buffer which has a pH of 6.8. This makes sure that it is about 2 units different from the pH of resolving gel.
What is the function of the gel?
Separating gel allows the separation of protein molecules according to their molecular weight by sieving effect of pores in the gel(percentage). The pH of separating or resolving gel is 8.8, whereas stacking gel (upper gel that squeezes protein as a thin layer) made of pH6.8.
Why stacking gel used in electrophoresis?
Stacking gel is used to make a thin uniform band of the DNa sample before the real seperation takes place.
What is the function and usage of stacking gel in sds-page?
The stacking gel is a large pore PAG (4%T). This gel is prepared with Tris/HCl buffer pH 6.8 of about 2 pH units lower than that of electrophoresis buffer (Tris/Glycine). These conditions provide an environment for Kohlrausch reactions determining molar conductivity, as a result, SDS-coated proteins are concentrated to several fold and a thin starting zone of the order of 19 μm is achieved in a few minutes. This gel is cast over the resolving gel. The height of the stacking gel region is always maintained more than double the height and the volume of the sample to be applied.this is based on [isotachophoresis] that is glycine from electrophoresis buffer have lower electrophoretic mobility than protein-sds complex which is less mobile than cl- ions.giycine-
Function of resolving gel in SDS PAGE?
Generally, SDS-PAGE is carried out with a discontinuous buffer system. It consists of a stacking gel(approximately 0.8-1cm) poured over a resolving gel (approximately 5-6cm long). The protein samples and stacking gel are prepared using Tris-Cl (pH 6.8), whereas the resolving gel is made in Tris-Cl (pH 8.8). However, for running the gel, the buffer reservoirs are filled with Tris-glycine buffer (pH 8.3). This provides differences in the pH and ionic strength between the electrophoresis buffer and the buffers used to cast the gel. As a result, the proper separation of the proteins is achieved.In order to prepare the gel, first, resolving gel (usually 10-12%) is poured between the glass plates. Generally, spacers of 0.75-1mm are used between the glass plates. Immediately, a layer of deionized water is added. This gives a uniform straight surface to the resolving gel and also helps in removing any un-polymerized residual form of the gel.After polymerization, the water layer is removed by turning the glass plate assembly upside down for a few seconds. Then stacking gel of larger pore size (usually 4-5%) is poured. A comb is inserted from the top of the glass plate assembly to make the wells. After the completion of polymerization, comb is removed and wells are rinsed with deionized water to remove any un-polymerized gel portion. The main function of stacking gel is to concentrate the protein samples into a sharp band before their entry into the resolving gel.
What is the function of the gel electrophoresis?

What is native gel electrophoresis?
Native Gel or the Native PAGE is the electrophoretic system in which the the proteins are run in their native conformation, that is that they are not denatured. This used when the function of the protein is important, especially enzymes, as the function of a protein is related to its native structure.
