17.How do gases get in or out of the leaves?Read and analyze the question and choices CAREFULLY; more importantly, ALWAYS CHOOSE the BEST answer. Gases can only diffure through the aerial root system. Stems suck up gases during photolysis of water of the light-dependent reactions of photosynthesis thereby releasing oxygen and hydrogen Through the diffusion of gases by opening and closing the guard cells of the stomata Leaves absorbs a voluminous amount of carbon dioxide during noon when there is direct sunlight.
