Question

what are the adaptations of leaf for photosynthesis and list the 3 mojorever during the process of photosynthesis​

Answer 1

Leaves are adapted for photosynthesis and gaseous exchange. The function of a leaf is photosynthesis, to absorb light and carbon dioxide to produce glucose (food).

The adaptations of leaf for photosynthesis are:

. Large surface area for maximum light absorption.

. The presence of chlorophyll containing

chloroplast.

. Thin structure- Short distance for carbon dioxide to diffuse into leaf cells

. The stomata that allow carbon dioxide to diffuse into the leaf and oxygen to diffuse out

. A large network of veins to support the leaf and transport water, mineral ions and sucrose (sugar)
