Carbon dioxide uses stomata as its route into the leaf for photosynthesis. Stomata are small pores on the leaf surface that allow gas exchange, with carbon dioxide entering the leaf through these openings during photosynthesis.
The reactants for photosynthesis, primarily carbon dioxide and water, are stored in the mesophyll layer of the leaf. This layer is located between the upper and lower epidermis and contains chloroplasts, which are essential for capturing light energy. The spongy mesophyll, in particular, facilitates gas exchange and allows carbon dioxide to diffuse into the cells where photosynthesis occurs.
To test a leaf for carbon dioxide, you can use a process called leaf disk assay. This involves placing leaf disks in a solution that is low in carbon dioxide, such as sodium bicarbonate solution, and then measuring the rate at which the leaf disks sink to determine the amount of CO2 produced during photosynthesis. Alternatively, you can use a gas sensor to directly measure the amount of carbon dioxide being absorbed or released by the leaf.
Carbon dioxide enters the leaf through small pores called stomata located primarily on the underside of the leaf. Once inside the leaf, carbon dioxide diffuses into the cells containing chloroplasts, where photosynthesis occurs. This process allows the plant to convert carbon dioxide into sugars using light energy.
Carbon dioxide enters a leaf through small openings called stomata, which are located on the underside of the leaf. The carbon dioxide diffuses into the leaf cells where it is used in photosynthesis to produce sugars.
Carbon is stored in the atmosphere primarily as carbon dioxide (CO2) molecule.
A leaf takes in sunlight and carbon dioxide.
Carbon dioxide enters a leaf through small openings called stomata on the surface of the leaf. The stomata open to allow carbon dioxide to diffuse into the leaf from the surrounding air. Once inside the leaf, carbon dioxide is used during photosynthesis to make glucose and oxygen.

the leaf has super little holes. The holes breathe in the carbon dioxide.

Carbon dioxide is naturally absorbed (through photosynthesis) and stored in trees and vegetation. It is also absorbed and stored in the oceans.
