Question

Name a plant which carries photosynthesis by its roots

Answer 1

Answer:

For plants to perform photosynthesis they require light energy from the sun, water and carbon dioxide. Water is absorbed from the soil into the cells of roots. The water passes from the root system to the xylem vessels in the stem until it reaches the leaves

Explanation:

Carbon dioxide is absorbed from the atmosphere through pores in the leaves called stomata. The leaves also contain chloroplasts which hold chlorophyll. The sun’s energy is captured by the chlorophyll.

Leaves are essential for the well-being of plants. Most of the reactions involved in the process of photosynthesis take place in the leaves. The diagram below shows the cross section of a typical plant leaf.
