Question

Why leaves are the major sites of photosynthesis

Answer 1

Answer:

Photosynthesis exists the method by which plants utilize sunlight, water, and carbon dioxide to produce oxygen and energy in the formation of sugar.

Explanation:

Leaf exists supposed to be the most suitable area for Photosynthesis because in a plant the leaves contain the highest surface area and it can conduct photosynthesis more efficiently as the rate of photosynthesis grows with the growth in the surface area available for photosynthesis.

Leaf, in botany, exists as to any usually flattened green outgrowth from the stalk of a vascular plant. As the primary areas of photosynthesis leaves manufacture food for plants, which in turn eventually feed and support all ground animals.

Answer 2

Answer:

Leaves are the major site of photosynthesis because of following reasons-

1. Large surface area to get enough amount of sunlight for ample production of food.
2. Chloroplasts containing chlorophyll to help trap the sunlight for photosynthesis.
3. Mesophyll cells are present in leaves that form the Spongy tissue to help gases to pass through.
4. Stomata allows  gaseous exchange and transpiration to keep surface cool.
