Answer: Leaves are important for plants because plants produce food with the help of leaves and leaves help in the process of transpiration.

Explanation:

All living things need food to thrive, grow and reproduce.

Green plants, Euglena, and chemically synthesized bacteria are autotrophs, while other organisms are heterotrophs.

Higher autotrophs have chloroplasts, organelles that contain chlorophyll / photosynthetic pigments. The

Chloroplast is where the photosynthetic process takes place. This process involves photodegradation of water and reduction of CO2, resulting in the production of simple carbohydrate glucose. Oxygen is also being developed here. Glucose is a plant food. Excess glucose molecules are converted to other forms of food such as starch and cellulose. The leaf cells and organelles also provide sites for protein synthesis, hormone synthesis, and fat synthesis.

The leaves of a plant take in solar energy and convert it into chemical energy of the plant by photosynthesis.

The number and density of chloroplasts is very high. The leaves also have many stomata where gas exchange and transpiration occur in the plant. The process of transpiration of exerts transpiration power and contributes to the rise of sap of tall plants like never before, along with root pressure. The leaves also add beauty and a special look to the plant.
