The answer to this question is very in-depth. In a nutshell: the plant absorbs carbon dioxide through the stoma (small holes) on the bottom of the leaves. Light strikes chlorophyll molecules in the leaves, causing a reaction that splits a water molecule into hydrogen and oxygen. The hydrogen joins to carbon dioxide, creating carbohydrates, and the oxygen is released into the atmosphere.
