    Study Notes

    Photosynthesis in Leaves

    • Leaves are primary sites for photosynthesis.
    • Chlorophyll, a green pigment found in chloroplasts, gives leaves their green color.
    • Chlorophyll absorbs light energy, which powers the creation of organic molecules inside chloroplasts.
    • Carbon dioxide (CO2) enters and oxygen (O2) exits leaves through tiny openings called stomata.
