No they do not. They will simply saturate and fall to the bottom, they will not dissolve. You have to throw them away to get rid of them after brewing.
No, you can only extract the water soluble parts and some of the aromatic oils in the leaves, using water. The bulk of a tea leaf (or any other leaf) is completely insoluble in water. If leaves were water soluble trees would loose all their leaves in any significant rainstorm (or if you sprayed them with water from your garden hose).
Tea powder, such as that used in instant tea or matcha, is generally soluble in water. When mixed with hot water, the fine particles dissolve, releasing flavor and color. However, traditional loose tea leaves are not soluble; instead, they steep in water to impart their flavor while remaining intact.

Green tea generally has a higher water-soluble polyphenol content compared to black tea due to differences in processing that retain more of the polyphenols. White tea may also have high polyphenol content, as it is minimally processed. The actual content can vary based on the specific type of tea, growing conditions, and processing methods used.
When a tea bag is placed in water, the water fills the tea bag. The soluble matter of the tea leaves, what essentially makes the tea, then diffuses into the water through the bag. The brown coloring is a result of this process.
Tea is literally fragmented tea leaves. In other words, you don't.
step 1: take a container and add 50 ml of solvent (WATER) in it . step 2: boil the solvent (WATER) for 2 mintues then add insoluble (tea leaves). step 3: add soluble (SUGAR) and leave it for few mintues. step 4: stir the solution (TEA) until the sugar is dissolved and add liitle solute (milk) according to taste . step 5: take a filtrate keep it on a cup and pour the tea . step 6: the insoluble residue will be left throw it out and you tasty recipe will be ready.
Tea leaves (Camelia Sinensis).
It is not the teabag that colours the water but the tea leaves which are inside the bag, They contain various chemicals and some of these dissolve in water giving it the characteristic flavour and colour of tea.
The basic ingredient of green tea is the same as the basic ingredient of normal ("black") tea: tea leaves, that is, the leaves from the tea shrub. In the case of black tea, the leaves are fermented; green tea is unfermented, or fermented less. But the leaves are the same.
Tea
it depends what type of tea..... white tea is made from tea leaves
