3. Function of a leaf
The main function of a leaf is how it
takes in co2 (carbon dioxide) and
changes/filters it into sugar and
oxygen.
5. How it does it
Water+light=chemical Energy
The sugar that the leaf makes is
nutrients the plant needs like
water,sun, and nutrients from the
soil.
Chemical Energy+CO2=Sugar
7. What does the stomata do?
The stomata are little holes on the
underside of the leaf that do many things.
Some of the things it does are, to take in
co2,spit out excess water the plant does
not need,and
9. What happens when a stomata opens?...
When a stomata opens, 2
things happen. Those
things are...
When a stomata
opens, co2 enters,
while excess water and
oxygen exit through
the stomata.
#1 Makes
sure co2
gets in.
#2 Makes
sure
excess
H2o and
oxygen go
out.

● Co2 [Carbon Dioxide]
[A reminder]
“Carbon dioxide is a naturally occurring chemical
compound composed of 2 oxygen atoms each
covalently double bonded to a single carbon atom.”

● water [H o]

“Water is a chemical compound with the chemical
formula H20
A water molecule contains one oxygen and two
hydrogen atoms”
