Carbon Dioxide from the air and goes into a leaf through the stomata; most are located underneath the leaf.
add There are two different photosynthesis paths, called C3 and C4 after the number of carbon atoms in the molecule.
There is a third photosynthesis pathway, called CAM, after an acid used in the pathway. This is used by desert plants and perching plants, both of which face shortages of water.
In these plants the stomata open at night and store the CO2, then close the stomata during the day (so as to conserve water) and use the sunlight to split the water into O and H.
Simple diffusion is the process by which the CO2 reaches inside of the leaf. If the air in the leaf becomes lower in CO2, (because it was absorbed) the diffusion process itself will remedy the defect.

How carbon dioxide enters a leaf?
yeah of coure sure
Where do carbon dioxide and oxygen from the air entre and leave the leaf?
Carbon dioxide and oxygen enter and leave the plant through the stomata, on the underside of leaves.
Where do carbon dioxide and oxygen from the air enter and leave and leaf?
guard cells and stomata.
What is the source of the earths oxygen?
Green plant life. Carbon dioxide in absorbed by green plant leaf. It undergoes photosynthesis in the plant; the oxygen is released back into the atmosphere and the carbon is retained in the plant as biomass. It is part of the Carbon / Oxygen cycle.
What form of sugar is the leaves job to make?
The leaves of a plant (or more correctly the chlorophyll in the chloroplasts of a leaf) use carbon dioxide and water to make glucose and oxygen.6 CO2 + 6 H2O ARROW C6H12O6 + 6 O26 carbon dioxide molecules plus 6 water molecules make one molecule of glucose and 6 molecules of oxygen.
How does most carbon dioxide reach the photosynthesising cells of a green leaf?
diffusion though the stomata
Contrast the manner in which water reaches the inside of a leaf with the manner in which carbon dioxide reaches the inside of a leaf?
It depends on the plant. If you're talking about, say, a tree, the water is carried up from the soil. That's why you water a houseplant. Carbon dioxide enters through holes in the bottom of the leaf called stomata.
Why does the part of leaf inside the bottle containing potassium hydroxide solution not get carbon dioxide?
i don`t no
When there is a low amount of carbon dioxide inside the leaf does the stoma open or shut?
probably means it is shut. since carbon dioxide goes through the stomata and is necessary for photosynthesis then if there is a low amount of it in the leaf then the stomata must be shut
What takes in sunlight and carbon dioxide?
A leaf takes in sunlight and carbon dioxide.
How does water reach inside of a leaf?
Water cannot reach inside of a leaf it hydrates it.
What does a leaf give out?
It consumes carbon dioxide and lets off oxygen.
How does carbon dioxide get into the leaf?
through the pores in the stomata of the leaf
Where does carbon dioxide enter in a leaf via holes?
the leaf!
What gases enter the leaf?
carbon dioxide im doing a project now
How does carbon enter a leaf?
the leaf has super little holes. The holes breathe in the carbon dioxide.
How do plants obsorb carbon dioxide?
by the leaf
