Which function do the stomata perform in photosynthesis?
1 answer
The stomata perform several functions in photosynthesis. One of the main functions is to regulate the exchange of gases, particularly carbon dioxide and oxygen, between the plant and its environment. The stomata open to take in carbon dioxide during photosynthesis and close to minimize the loss of water vapor through transpiration. This helps to maintain the balance of gases needed for the process of photosynthesis.
