Photosynthesis occurs mainly in the leaves of plants. Leavers are specially efficiency.
During Photosynthesis - Carbon dioxide diffuses in through the stomata. Oxygen diffuses out through the stomata. And water is absorbed through the root hair cell.
A leaf has four distinct layers:
- The upper epidermis - is transparent to allow the sunlight through to the layer below.
- The palisade layer
- The spongy mesophyll - contains a lots of air spaces connected to the stomata to allow the optimum exchange of gases.
- The lower epidermis.
