Which label belongs in the area marked Y?

Enters plant as a part of water

The label that belongs in the area marked Y is "Is released into air through stomata."

In photosynthesis, oxygen is produced as a byproduct during the process when plants convert carbon dioxide and water into glucose and oxygen, and this oxygen is released into the air through small openings in the leaves called stomata.
