  1. Carbon Dioxide enters through the stomata the when photosynthesis occurs oxygen is released through the stomata


  2. For a simple answer carbon dioxide is obtained from the air that enters the leaves through the stomata and through the process called photosynthesis oxygen is then released through leaves that is why their has been such an issue with the destroying of the rainforests.

  3. Through the leaves.

  4. It occurs in the openings of the leaf called the stomata, which are pores that lead to the inter cellular space. From this point on a great deal of chemistry happens which is considered by most who study botany to be the "Bane of ALL Who Go There", it is the Krebs Cycle. Memorize it now, you will have to eventually.

  5. It occurs through the leaves of the plant. That is why in the summer (Northern hemisphere), there is a decrease in the amount of CO2 in the air. In the winter, the leaves are shed and the CO2 rises because there are less leaves to absorb it.

  6. stomata

  7. Carbon dioxide is taken from the air through the stomata in the leaves and with water from the soil through the roots, they are turned into glucose plus oxygen by photosynthesis.  The oxygen is released back into the air through the stomata in the leaves
