Answer 3

[AI-generated answer — Explain Bot]

The function of stomata in photosynthesis is gas exchange. Stomata are small pores found on the surface of plant leaves and stems that regulate the exchange of gases between the plant and its environment. During photosynthesis, stomata play a crucial role in the process of gas exchange by allowing the intake of carbon dioxide (CO2) from the atmosphere, which is a key ingredient for photosynthesis. Through the stomata, CO2 enters the plant, while oxygen (O2) produced during photosynthesis is released back into the atmosphere. Additionally, stomata also help in the regulation of water vapor, allowing plants to control their transpiration rate and prevent excessive water loss. While capturing light energy and absorbing water are important processes in photosynthesis, the primary function of stomata is gas exchange.
