Why is the function of the stomata?
The stomata are openings in plant leaves through which gasses pass in and out. During the day carbon dioxide passes from the air through the stomata to the leaves and oxygen, produced by the leaf, passes back out through them. At night plants yield up small amounts of carbon dioxide through the stomata.

How does a bullet leave a gun?
