Through the stomata, openings in the leaf surface. By diffusion.
There are three photosynthesis processes, C3, C4, and CAM. (These names describe part of the chemistry.)
The desert plants (and some epiphytes) use CAM, for in this process, the stomata are closed during the day, and open at night. The plant absorbs CO2 into its system as a complex chemical (the CAM bit) over night, and during the day, the stomata close and the plant converts the CAM chemical into CO2 to be used for photosynthesis in the usual way.
Normal plants open their stomata during the day, and CO2 diffuses in and O2 out.
What else can I help you with?
What molecule enters a leaf from the atmosphere?
Carbon dioxide (CO2) is the molecule that enters a leaf from the atmosphere during photosynthesis.
Would co2 be reduced if the leaf is covered with a plastic bag?
Covering a leaf with a plastic bag would prevent the exchange of carbon dioxide and oxygen with the atmosphere, limiting the leaf's ability to photosynthesize and reduce carbon dioxide. However, extended lack of gas exchange could harm the leaf's health and eventually lead to a decrease in photosynthetic activity.
How does carbon dioxide reach inside a leaf?
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.
Place where blood changes from low CO2 to high CO2?
The blood changes from low CO2 to high CO2 in the tissues where oxygen is delivered and CO2 is produced as a byproduct of cellular metabolism.
What is the equation for the dissolution of CO2 in water?
The equation for the dissolution of CO2 in water is: CO2 H2O H2CO3
What are the holes in the leaf that the CO2 enters through?
Stomata
How does a leaf carry photosynthesis?
The leaf collects Carbon Dioxcide (CO2) and somehow turns it into Oxygen
Which process in the leaf uses o2 and produces co2?
photosynthesis
What are the holes in the leaf called that the CO2 enters through?
Stomata
What does a leaf part of plant do?
what does a leaf do on a plantRespiration: It draws in outside air for its CO2 content, expires O2Photosynthesis: Where Co2 is converted into sugar.Excretes excess water.Produces toxins to ward off herbivores.
How does the carbon dioxide enter the leaf in dark reaction?
RUBP or PEP will absorb it. CO2 enter the leaf from air.
What molecule enters a leaf from the atmosphere?
Carbon dioxide (CO2) is the molecule that enters a leaf from the atmosphere during photosynthesis.
Where does CO2 enter on a leaf during photosynthesis?
CO2 enters through stomata. They are tiny pores on leaves.
What gas does a leaf produce?
oxygen in day time, co2 at night
What is the openings in the epidermis of a leaf that let CO2 into the leaves?
The openings in the epidermis of a leaf that let CO2 into the leaves are called stomata. Stomata are small pores primarily located on the underside of the leaf that allow for gas exchange, including the intake of CO2 for photosynthesis and the release of oxygen.
How does carbon dioxide leAVE a leaf?
Carbon dioxide leaves a leaf through small openings called stomata on the surface of the leaf. The concentration of carbon dioxide inside the leaf is higher than in the atmosphere, causing it to diffuse out of the leaf through the stomata.
How does Co2 move in and out of the cell?
Out of what cell? well, if it's out of plants, CO2 from air diffuse in to cellular spaces in the mesophyll layer. CO2 from respiration move out of the leaf also by diffusion:)
