Through the stroma, plants primarily exchange carbon dioxide (CO2) and oxygen (O2). During photosynthesis, plants take in carbon dioxide from the atmosphere and release oxygen as a byproduct. This gas exchange occurs in tiny openings called stomata, which are often located on the underside of leaves. Overall, plants absorb CO2 for photosynthesis and release O2 into the environment.

What is the openings in leaves that allow gases to pass through?

The openings in leaves that allow gases to pass through are called stomata. Stomata help regulate gas exchange by allowing carbon dioxide to enter the leaf for photosynthesis and oxygen to exit, while also enabling water vapor to escape through transpiration.

What gas is given of as waste in a leaf?

Gases are released through the stomata, on the underside of the leaf. There is more than one gas given off by the leaf, however. Carbon Dioxide is given off when the plant performs aerobic respiration; Oxygen and water vapor are given off during photosynthesis; and there are other gases that different plants give off at different times.


Do stroma allow exchange of gases such as carbon dioxide and oxygen between the plant and the atmosphere?

No, stroma is the fluid inside chloroplasts where the light-independent reactions of photosynthesis take place. Gas exchange between plants and the atmosphere occurs through small openings called stomata, located mainly on the underside of leaves. Stomata regulate the entry of carbon dioxide needed for photosynthesis and the release of oxygen produced during the process.
