Question

Explain how carbon atoms become part of a plant

Answer 1

Some of the carbon atoms in the glucose exit the leaf as carbon dioxide during respiration while other carbon atoms are used to make important parts of the plant, such as additional leaves or wood. Carbon atoms that remain in leaves will either fall off (during plant senescence) or become a meal for an animal. Hope this helps

Answer 2
