How do stomates (pores) from leaves transform CO2 (carbon dioxide) into O2 (oxygen)?

Question

The stomates in leaves change the CO2 into O2 in photosenthesis, and I'm hoping to learn how. I already know enough about photosenthesis itself, so please don't give me the definition of that. Thank you for your time!

Answer 1

Yeah, stomates are merely just two epidermal cells (guard cells) that control an opening between them in the leaf surface.  That opening is used to control the exchange of gasses between the plant and the atmosphere (mostly co2 and o2).  Actually, much of the carbon and oxygen of co2 get used up in the second part of photosynthesis when the plant makes sugars.  Much of the oxygen being produced in the leaves is a product of the first part of photosynthesis and comes from h2o.

Answer 2

Just as our nostrils do not transform / change  one gas in to another ; Stomata ( Sigular , Stoma = pore ) do not transform / change  CO2 in to O2 .

These are just pores as the name suggests and are the entry and exit doors for the said gases.

Think them as similar to human nostrils
