What is the job of the stomata in photosynthesis?

Answer 1

Stomata open to let the leaves take in CO2 during process of photosynthesis, and allow oxygen to escape. They also allow water to escape, thus aiding sap transport.

Some desert plants close their stomata during the heat of the day, and only open them at night. The CO2 they absorb during the night, they then store up, and allow photosynthesis to take place during the daylight. This is called C4 photosynthesis.

Answer 2

Stomata is the place on a leaf where air is exchanged. Stomata consist of two specialized cells, called guard cells, that surround a tiny pore called a stoma. The word stomata means "mouth" in Greek because they allow communication between the internal and external environments of the plant. Their main function is to allow gases such as carbon dioxide, water vapor and oxygen to move rapidly into and out of the leaf.

Answer 3

Stomata are tiny pores on the leaves of plants which allow CO2 in and water and Oxygen (a byproduct of photosynthesis) out. Water leaves the plant as vapor. Certain plants such as cacti only open their stomata at night, to reduce the amount of water lost.

Answer 4

The stomata allow carbon dioxide into the leaf, as well as letting oxygen and out by products of photosynthesis out. This allows photosynthesis to occur, as CO2 is needed in the reaction

Answer 5

Type your answer here..it allows water to leave the plant through it when it opens. this cools down the plant or

Answer 6

They assist the plant in gaseous exchange, and take in carbon dioxide so that photosynthesis can occur.

Answer 7

The stomata are the holes in leaves where the plants breathe. They take in carbon dioxide and release oxygen.
