•To make food, a leaf To make food, a leaf needs needs twotwo things: things:1.1. waterwater
2.2. carbon dioxidecarbon dioxide

•A leaf gets A leaf gets waterwater through through veinsveins (narrow tubes (narrow tubes containing xylem).containing xylem).
•A leaf gets A leaf gets carbon carbon dioxide dioxide (CO(CO22) through ) through stomatastomata (tiny holes in the (tiny holes in the bottom ofbottom ofthe leaf).the leaf).
What do leaves do?What do leaves do?
•Plants make food through Plants make food through a process called a process called photosynthesisphotosynthesis..
•The process takes place The process takes place in in chloroplastschloroplasts, which are , which are just below the just below the epidermisepidermis(outer layer of the leaf).(outer layer of the leaf).

•The Photosynthesis The Photosynthesis Equation:Equation:– Carbon dioxide + water Carbon dioxide + water ++ sunlight = sugar and sunlight = sugar and oxygen oxygen

•When animals breathe in When animals breathe in oxygen, it releases, or oxygen, it releases, or unlocks, the energy unlocks, the energy stored in food. This is stored in food. This is called called respirationrespiration..
