Leaves
The cell membrane protects the cell and regulates what substances enter and leave the cell.
Substances leave the plant through processes such as transpiration, where water evaporates from the leaves, and translocation, where sugars and other nutrients are transported through the phloem tissue to other parts of the plant for growth and metabolism. Additionally, gases like oxygen and carbon dioxide can enter and exit the plant through tiny openings called stomata on the leaves.
Gas, nutrients, and water would not be able to enter a leaf if it were coated with wax. The waxy layer would create a barrier that prevents the entry of these substances, which are essential for the leaf's photosynthesis and overall functioning.
Mainly in leave cells. They are modified for photosynthesis
In green plant cells, the substances produced during cellular respiration that are utilized in photosynthesis are carbon dioxide (CO2) and water (H2O). During respiration, glucose is broken down to release energy, producing CO2 as a byproduct. This CO2 is then absorbed by the plant during photosynthesis, where it, along with water and sunlight, is converted into glucose and oxygen.
Pores called stomata, which open and close by guard cells.
pores in the leaves and stomates allow gases to enter and leave the plant
The gas for photosynthesis...carbon dioxide diffuses into the plant through its stomata ('holes' in the leaf's underside). Water is transported through the plant in the xylem tube (waterproof tube that makes up part of the plants veins and covers the whole plants structure) as it is drawn up from the roots where it is absorbed. It is drawn up by the water evaporationg through the stomata. The light obviously enters the leaf and enters the chloroplasts where it combines with the chlorophyll to provide the energy for the photosynthesis reaction. The products from photosynthesis...glucose and oxygen are removed from the plant leaves. Glucose through the phloem tube (another of the veins) and oxygen through diffusion through the stomata or it is used up in respiration.
The cell organelle responsible for controlling which substances enter and leave a plant cell is the cell membrane, specifically the plasma membrane. The plasma membrane is a selectively permeable barrier composed of phospholipids and proteins that regulate the passage of molecules such as nutrients, water, and waste products. Through processes like diffusion, osmosis, and active transport, the plasma membrane maintains cellular homeostasis by allowing essential substances to enter the cell while preventing harmful substances from entering.

Light.
Substances pass in and out of stomata through diffusion and active transport. Water and gases like CO2 and O2 enter and exit the stomata to support photosynthesis and respiration in plants. This exchange of substances helps regulate plant water balance and the exchange of gases necessary for plant metabolism.
the phloem transports organic substances made by photosynthesis throughout the plant, mainly sucrose
Oxygen and sunlight.

chlorophyll does not enter the plant, sunlight does.
